Sense and the City: City as a Canvas

So last night I attended the city as a canvas talk at London Transport Museum where Usman Haque, Kevin Brown (Brothers and Sisters) and Sam Hoey (Jason Bruges Studio) talking about the city as a canvas:

Increasingly new technologies such as projection mapping, augmented reality and geo-tagging are being used to transform public and private city spaces. Artists and industry leaders from the worlds of art, architecture and advertising present and discuss imaginative digital interventions, which embroider, invade and subvert urban surfaces

Some really great presentations and even better work, a reminder for me that this is where I want to be working, and the types of work I want to create. Some of my favourite works below:

TXTual Healing

UVA: Triptych

Jason Bruges Studio: Platform 5

Usman Haque: Primal Scream

Alot of the work that is in progress sounded great to, especially Jason Bruges studio, race against Usain Bolt for the Olmypic stadium.

Here is a great little review of the talk: http://www.chrisunitt.co.uk/2011/10/sense-and-the-city-the-city-as-a-canvas/

onedotzero_adventures in motion festival 2011

So the tickets went on sale today for BFI members...I am quite excited to be part of it all again 2 years later but this time helping in all the prep as an intern with onedotzero.
I am excited to see the identity which has been done by UVA, and see the finally selected installations to be included, which hopefully I should get chance to get involved with!
They are also running a 2 day processing workshop with Karsten Schmidt which will be great, I juts hope they let me in without having to pay the full wack!

Strange feeling

So I popped back into uni yesterday and was strange seeing posters up everywhere that had my work on and were talking about me. I remember when I used to see them up and around and talking about past students and what they were up to and it was quite surreal!
