Workshop: Projector as an instrument, by Floris Vanhoof

By Marcos Ortega on Tue, 16/02/2016 - 03:42

"An immediate form of creating image and sound, a play on the possibilities offered by the film projectors, a use of mechanical machines in performance, discover what you can do with multiple projectors running simultaneously.

Performances with multiple projectors offer artist-filmmakers the opportunity to expand their spectrum of lumino-pictorical techniques. With modified 16mm projectors, conventional tools become personal instruments for transforming images loops of pure black and white into immersive perceptual phenomenons. Abstract forms and strobe pulsing on the screen slowly transform when adding additional projectors, overlays creating strange halos, bizarre 3D expansions and contractions. When more projectors are added, there occurs an intense sensory overload of light, sound and color."

Saturday, February 20, 2016 - 10:00 to Sunday, February 21, 2016 - 16:55
