3D Projections on Buildings

fantastic

Neat

Wow. That is definitely Neat. I would love to see that up close.

Cute.

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

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…….?
