An interactive art installation that combines water and light to create an ephemeral experience. It consists of a maze with walls embedded with panels of LED lights that are activated upon contact with water. When water is applied to the surface the LEDs light up, allowing participants to “draw” or write with water. Depending on the water level detected, the LED lights brightness varies.
BILL OF MATERIALS
THE CODE
The Arduino code reads humidity levels from the water level sensors and maps the sensor’s output to control the LED light. The brightness pattern of the LEDs changes dynamically based on the humidity value.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
Apply the code to a panel of LED lights using Neopixel Library, and to be able to control more LED lights with less number of sensors.
Use RGB LED lights to create a more interactive installation. Controlling the colors and brightness depending on the humidity and water level detected from the sensors.
