Architectonic Cinema

Abstract

Using projection to create an imaginary space 360 Panoscope film installation which people could interact with.

The footage of film would be the elements from the limerick city (buildings, clouds, rivers, plants…) which would be reconstructed and remerged into contradictory or imaginary scenarios of space.

Sensors would be set in a dark room to track the movement of users, audio and scenario would change according.

 

Intention

Exploration between real space and virtual space.

Allowing people have a better understanding of Ireland/limerick.

Giving people a opportunity to reconsider the city space they live in .

Inspirations

Using projection to intimate the space thus create a virtual environment

Inspirations

An immersive existence simulator and telepresence apparatus for thePanoscope 360° (single channel immersive display for real-time 3D)

Panoscope 360

Imaginary Space

Contraction space

- Creating a space which people wouldn’t experience in ordinary life

City image

“Lack of dreams”

Interactive Video/image Montage

Shoot in camera- Video Canon 550D ,mirror- Photography, Photoshop

Create montages- Merging different elements in the city in Photoshop , rearrang

ing it to create a new space, stitching all the space footage together to adding a surreal twist to the footage

- Example: Walking above the cloud with the floating buildings- The sky dissolved into water when users touched- . Editing in Final Cut Pro.

Interactive Elements

The image change according to the interaction

-Interactive floor zen drawing

The sound change according to the interaction The scnario change according to the interaction-Visceral cinema

Software

Camera Photoshop Final cut After effects Sensors Logic Pro Max/Msp

Technology

----Tracking in the darkInfrared sensors

Targeted audience

Public Tourist

location

Public Space Museum Gallery Even a kiosk on the street

What to do in the future

Talking to people, get their idea about the current city space

-especially talking to old people in order to get their memory of old space in the city, trying to collect old image and footage and remerge them into new space.

  Learning After effects, logic Pro, Max/Msp

  Talking to supervisor
