<\/p>\nMy days are frequently divvied up into intervals of work and rest. I\u2019ll spend three hours working, and then I\u2019ll switch over to an hour long break. The idea behind my project is that I want the lighting in my room to reflect whatever \u201cmode\u201d I\u2019m currently in. Colors are frequently associated with particular emotions, and it\u2019s possible that by having the lighting be in colors that promote productivity and work, I\u2019ll be able to more easily get down to work. If the colors in my room are relaxing, maybe I\u2019ll be more at peace, too. The intention is that the user will be able to change the lighting at will, and I\u2019m hoping this will affect the emotional state of the user. Furthermore, time is a key component of this project. The idea behind the project is tied to working and resting at particular times throughout the day. As such, I\u2019m planning to incorporate a clock into the project. The following section details the logic associated with this project.<\/p>\n
Before going forward, it is important to note that it is possible to turn every switch on. There is a hierarchy to them which determines what lights will turn on. If work is switched on, then it doesn\u2019t matter if rest and party are on as well. The work lights will be on. If the clock is not in sleep mode, then awake mode is true. Furthermore, it is important to note that I\u2019ve detailed which colored lights will come on. This is subject to change depending on whether or not said colored lights are appropriate. For example, if I discover that blue doesn\u2019t make me calm at all or that particular colored lights put me more in the mood to party than green lights, then I will change which colors turn on.<\/p>\n
(NOT sleep) AND NOT(work OR rest OR party) -> awake lights<\/p>\n
Work AND (NOT sleep) -> work lights<\/p>\n
Rest AND (NOT work) AND (NOT sleep) -> rest lights<\/p>\n
Party AND NOT (work OR rest) AND (NOT sleep) -> party lights<\/p>\n
All assumptions made here are addressed in the above word equation section.<\/p>\n

Here are some pictures of my progress.<\/p>\n
