Bending Light

fe1c42e4531891ca7abef4377b0834bbI have a few things to share today. Firstly, a couple of super things to watch for pure enjoyment and inspiration. I came across the first one on The Creators Project. Written by Jordan Backhus, the article looks at a digital solo performance, Hakanaïcreated by Adrien M / Claire B which combines live video projection mapping, CGI, and sensors which respond to the movements of the performer.  Backhus’ article also contains an interesting interview with the creators about the meeting of art and technology. Take a look at their incredible work below:

The second is from Lemieux Pilon 4D Art, a Montreal based mulit-disciplinary company that also works heavily with technology and projection. One of their latest works is Icarus, which, not surprisingly, is a contemporary take on the ancient myth and explores the complex relationships between fathers and sons.

Lemieux Pilon have a Vimeo channel with many more videos of their extraordinary work.
