As well as controlling the movement of sound from left to right, I will be controlling two lightbulbs within the installation. This will be in correspondance to the sound, for example, when sound is coming from the left speaker the light on the left hand side will brighten. This will enhance the audio visual experience, drawing attention to the use of stereo-style sound to create an immersive atmosphere.
I will be doing this by using servo's attached to dimmer switches. This will require the same code as the reel to reel players, so it should be a fairly simple task.
I have found a product which enables the dimming of any lamp, perhaps I could use vintage lamps to reinforce the idea that the installation was once a living space (until it exploded). The product is pictured below:
