Industry is working on screen technologies without borders. Arbitrary details, free arrangement and form, flexible materials and feedable from your pocket: these are the defined goals of the engineers.

How can artists and designers react on these possibilities?

The participants of this workshop are invited to anticipate the benefit of new screen technologies already today and to explore it in free experiments and beyond 4:3.

With the help of projectors and small models, working and/or inspiring prototypes will be developed, which may also use sensors for simple interactions. Furthermore, there will be an understandable comprehension of the technical development and an overview of existing artistic works.

Available: beamers, styrofoam blocks, tools and power
Bring with you: found-footage objects, notebooks and ideas

Know-how: tinkering... and/or Photoshop, Flash/ActionScript, processing, After Effects, Blender

Documentation

digitalight is over!

We had face recognition with OpenCV, optical illusions with dragons, floating cubes on flat surfaces, a controllable sun, rainbow caustica with crystals, giant balloons, a self-made interactive whiteboard and lots of other ideas.

Many thanks to all the wonderful participants and of course Prof. Zil Lilas, who invited me to do this workshop as well as Martin Rumori who gave us the fantastic Klanglabor as seminar room.
