Answer:

No, there wasn't any variation in the light intensity at 360 degrees.

During the rotation, rotating through an angle of 90° gradually brought the intensity to a maximum. Rotating by another 90° degrees brought the intensity to a minimum at some point. Rotating by another 90° brought it back to its maximum and then another 90° brought it to its initial intensity.
