I wish to use an ordinary 230V ac light bulb in multiple ways , all at the same time.



The bulb will be part of an metal reflector construction.



My wish is to control the intensity of light , ususal voltage control but at the same time to use the bulb as an directional antena for AM , FM and High Voltage signals and more then that I wish to use the AM for producing acoustic efects in the metal reflector .



Any circuit aviable ?

Not a good idea - filaments don't like vibration.

Either you need a better translator or you need to learn a lot of basic physics.

You'll have better luck using an arc than a filamented bulb. All the effects you want are considered "undesirable side-effects" of arc lamps using badly-filtered power.
