| In my Art in Public Places category. Consider the following animated art. This is totally amazing and even better than claymation! I’m going to go get some of my San Francisco graffiti photos and post them too (I took about 100 of them last weekend.) SF and environs is full of old World War II battlements (never used) that get spraypainted with the most wonderful graffiti. But this video takes the prize! |

Interactive Art-in-public-places
In my “commercial” world, one of the things I do is related to art-in-public-places. More specifically, I create “games” that play out thru mobile phones and the Internet, and they are (currently) all linked to art that’s in public places.
So when Cory Doctorow blogged this event (which took place in October-November 2007) it immediately captured my attention. It’s an interactive light painting on the face of a cathedral where the color and patterns of light projected on the face of the building react to sound input from the spectators. “Usman Haque has created responsive environments, interactive installations, digital interface devices and mass-participation performances.” I hope you get as much of a kick from viewing the video as I did.
