Project Ideas

Time travel

This project is to explore the melding of imagination, wishful thinking, and projected images. The premise would take up an entire room. Where in audience members enter through in a staggered fashion. The environment would be immersive, before the audience member enters they can pick a favorite era of history or event. Once they enter the room they would find themselves in a projected environment that shows what it was like to be a part of this moment. It won't be interactive, as the purpose is to be washed in the moment rather than take part in it.

Staycation
This project is a slightly different take on Time Travel. Rather than hurdling into the past audience members can choose a restbit from reality. There will be one chair in the center of the room where one can rest and relax. After they are settled into the chair a chosen environment from a few options will surround them. Sounds and scenery will appear and the audience member can decompress.

Create a Masterpiece
All these projects focus on projected reality and experience. Instead of focusing on surroundings I would like to focus on an activity. The inspiration for this comes from those projected pumpkin carving kits one can find around halloween. A program would find the main lines and general colors in a piece of art. It would then project them in stages onto butchers paper. The outline would come first, then the color, then perhaps some smaller details such as texture. An audience member could then take part in creating art by choosing one of the pieces and recreating it. Each piece would be unique because of the hand that creates it, but uniform. The final installation would include a video montage of the various works that were created.
