Video Art Technology

An Introduction

Over the last five years I have researched video wall technology and

designed applications for its use in many different areas. Ranging

from museums, live events, restaurants, hotels, nightclubs, urban

environments, research facilities and private residencies.

Technology has always fascinated me and I constantly seek to find new

ways of working with emerging equipment and materials, incorporating

new concepts into production environments. Through experimentation and

unconventional methods, I explore new technology, bending it to the

needs of my projects. An example of this would be the use of motion or

optical sensors combined with custom computer software, which allows

the movement of a person to adjust parameters, such as color or

effects, of a video image.

Recent advances in computers and projection technology have enabled

increasingly efficient ways of working with high-resolution media,

achieving stunning visual results and yielding the prospect to now

work with video in much more fluid ways, revealing possibilities never

before imagined.

The concept of video art is often considered to be the making of films

or creating of advertisements. Having worked with both domains of

thought, I prefer the domain in which video art would be considered a

lighting experience that doesn't necessarily incorporate text or story

and is more associated with the ability to control aspects of light to

allow the present architectural expression remain.

Through the subtle use of video editing software and live manipulation

of video, images can be digitally carved or masked to map toward

specific areas of a surface, such as the façade of a building or an

interior. Blending with the complete design and decor of a building,

video content can match every aspect of space, adding a dynamic and

beautiful addition to any environment. I call this process

architectural video mapping.
