imagine the night sky
Our latest work is a pair of interactive projections commissioned by the Adelaide Festival Centre for an exhibition named ‘Imagine the Night Sky’ held in the Artspace Gallery. The exhibition is aimed at primary school children and explores stories from around the world relating to night and day, the sun, the moon and the stars.
The first projection was shadow-interactive and let viewers use their shadows to play a harp and jiggle the strings of two baboon ‘puppets’. The second projection was sound-interactive and let viewers control the flight of a bee or wake an owl by whistling or blowing into a microphone.
Imagine the Night Sky is open Tues-Sat 10am-3pm from 1st – 29th May 2010 at Artspace Gallery at the Adelaide Festival Centre. Free entry.
More info coming soon!

the coded wall
‘The Coded Wall’ is an interactive digital art project that explores new modes of live interaction made possible by combining high speed computing with a camera and projector. The work consists of a number of short dynamic projections which respond to shadows – so you can get in front of the projector and have a play!
The piece was originally exhibited during August 2008 in the Moving Image Gallery as part of the SALA Festival. The audience response was fantastic and we received a high commendation in the Bunka Moving Image Award.
‘The Coded Wall’ was built with proce55ing software and represents two months of collaborative work by Kirstin Wache and George Campbell at make&do studio.
