Hello,
I am 37-year-old emerging artists looking for some help with a project I have. There's a sculpture I would like to construct part of the sculpture is using small motors to turn a series of squares. Think of a checkerboard and each square would be able to turn on its own in a random pattern but on certain times of the day all the squares would move back into their original positions.
There is more to the sculpture than that but this is the basic idea I am having trouble with. I have been doing my best to discover what I need to do from the research I've done I guess I would have to use something called stepper motors, a microcontroller obviously some type of circuit board design and learn something called program C code language?
As much as I'm trying to do my best to grasp this new form of expression I am at a loss I do not have the aptitude or training to understand all the nuances that go into creating the complex piece of machinery that I desire. So I was wondering is there anyone out there that can give me a hand with this?
I live in Southern California although I am not a real artist yet I hope to be one someday there's nothing worse than having an idea knowing what you want but not knowing how to make it come to life. So if anyone out there can point me in the right direction offer some help give some suggestions or I may even be able to pay somebody I just need a little guidance.
Thank you for your time
Sincerely,
The artist that needs help!!!
