Cascades

Getting ready for our new interactive projection piece Cascades.

Cascades is an interactive digital artwork for urban spaces. Using projected digital imagery and technology we seek to pose questions about how we use our urban spaces, how we look at them and how we move within them.

Kit has been arriving and we have got a great Infra red tracking system working. Today I am going to be testing some of the set ups and visuals. Here is an image of the demo processing patches we are working on.

We Launch 2nd December at the Belgrade Theatre Coventry and then transfer the piece to the Bubble Chamber, now at 21-25 Hertford Street, the old JJB Shop thanks to some support from 3space.org

Cascades will be live after dark every night till January 2nd

Glow Available to Tour



Glow is an interactive digital game created by artists Oliver Scott and Ashley Brown for Coventry’s City Arcade. Three interactive screens were displayed in the windows of the Bubble Chamber to encourage animation, creativity and enjoyment. Viewers’ were excited as their movement was captured on camera and translated into eye-catching graphics which evolve over time. The photo shows Glow in a shop window of Coventry's busy City Arcade.
