Week 6: How many lights does it take to completely change the color of my bedroom?

When I was cleaning my room today I realized I have a lot of different lighting options and when you put them all together in a certain way they do fun things. For starters I have a lamp on both my dresser by the door (bottom pic) and on my bedside table (1st pic). The tall lamp hanging out by my closet (2nd pic but you can also see the light from it on the other closet door in the 1st) is cool because two of the five bulbs sticking out are pink and give off a slightly pinkish light in the general direction of my desk. Above my bed wrapped around the curtain rode is a rope-like purple thing that lights up but for the most part it's just decorative. It's kind of like a strand of Christmas lights; it's pretty to look at but for the most part it's rather useless as it doesn't emit much light. I also have a black light over my bed above the cork board and various glow-in-the-dark galaxies painted onto my ceiling and empty wall space. Perhaps I will talk about what my room can look like in the evening for my next blog.

But anyways, the particularly fun lighting source is the sunlight coming through the sheer lilac purple curtains I got for Christmas and just now decided to put up. With nothing else turned on, the light coming in is a soft purple with a small hint of light blue. I think it's interesting to see how this wash coming in through the window blends with the two small lamps and the one that gives off pink over by my desk. In the 2nd pic you can see the white-ish light going into the closet, the pink going onto my desk, and the purple hitting the wall from the window directly across.

We've been talking about "sense of source" lately and I'm not really sure where The Source is in my room. I feel like each fixture lights up its own respective area quite nicely depending on where I am in my room. (The Source used to be the ceiling light but I've stopped using it ever since I lost the remote thing to turn it on/off and I'm too short to reach the pull strand). Having all the lights on all the time isn't necessary and often I will only use whichever light I need depending on where I am, if I'm by my closet/desk, the bed, or the dresser.
