This intensive experimental workshop will invite participants to develop
and present urban interventions using a mobile platform for the projection
of huge images. Basically, we will place the world's most powerful projector
(which produces 60 x 60 metre images with over 100,000 ANSI lumen intensity)
on the back of a pick-up truck together with a diesel generator, a GPS tracker,
a pan/tilt platform and an assortment of lenses. The project will consist
of rapid deployment of strategic images to transform urban landscapes. Logos,
emblematic buildings, quotidian spaces, suburban malls, advertising billboards,
etc., will be the targets of unannounced, unregulated ephemeral interventions.
Documentation of these projects will be an integral part of the workshop,
as the conditions of possibility of legal/political/aesthetic viability
are fast, short interventions below the radar of potential regulators. |
