The final result of the Changing Light study exhibits the same light box and lighting conditions however I replaced the screen.  In this study I experimented with a  more reflective material and a finer grain of “pixelation” with the panels.  Also, I aimed to minimize direct light entering the room by densifying and carefully laying out the array of panels between the support “L” shaped frames.  The resulting light is a bit darker obviously given the new grey but still shinny material that face each other and bounce light into the box.  This arrangement was successful in further showcasing the gradient effect of light from panel to panel especially on the ceiling, however the shadows cast by this screen still seem a bit more regular then I’d like. 

After careful review and examination of the light box effects in different conditions, we came to the conclusion that a secondary light source would further intensify the pixelation effect and create a secondary pattern that complements the primary one as they interact.  For the final project I would like to introduce at least one more material or finish treatment into the panel array with different qualities as it interacts with light.   Also, as couple people suggested, introducing some variation into the array pattern might lead me to discover varied effects that may help me pinpoint the most ideal condition.
