   Unfortunately, the effects shown on this video are not from actual projections - these are digitally created. If you follow the link to the MonstersandRockets site, the video there has a link on the lower right side that goes to the Vimeo website where they explain that the video is a digital creation of what is possible. There IS a video of an actual live projection which, although not quite as impressive as this one, is pretty darn impressive in it's own right. Plus the music is better.

    I am pretty sure that there is a building that employs some sort of projection technique a lot like this on back roads to Las Vegas. It is near a little town called Amboy, California. Which happens to be a very creepy ghost town where the Manson cult is rumored to hang.

    The first time I saw it was a late night drive back from Las Vegas with my husband. He saw it, too. But neither of us said a word for some time because we didn't know if we were legitimately seeing things. A few miles down the road I had the guts to mention it, and he saw it, too.

    Friends and other people we've met saw the same loan building all lit up. It's apparently called the Psychedelic House and is lit up on some nights but not others. I highly doubt that anybody lives there, but it is kind of nifty to see lit up while you're driving a two lane road through the middle of the desert.

    the technique they used is called projection mapping. Here in Italy we have a great visual artist that uses it, and that I had the luck to work with that is called Claudio Sinatti

    Other great users of this technique are Exyzt and AntiVJ
    If you are interested in these kind of work you should definitely check them online

    Funny- I know the buildings that are used in this clip- Old townhall Middelburg-Zeeland-Netherlands and church Zierikzee-Zeeland-Netherlands. Ironic is that that townhall was completely destroyed by bombing in WW2. So now they recreated that effect.

    But it does look as if it is only a digital rendering and not actual projection.
    Nevertheless it looks great- Making a building collapse like that with the appropriate sound-effects should make a nice April-Fools-Day joke.

    Oh and another thing:

    "The goofy pop music in the clip does detract from the cool factor a bit, though."

    ... I know, my next suggestion is very over the top, far-fetched, and perhaps even nerdish or geeky- ...But there is this possibility that in fact can by accomplished at least 2 ways - I nearly dare not say this here:

    ...
    ....
    .....
    ...... ...Turn down the volume while looking at that clip.......?
