Overview

This week-long program provides hands-on skills and knowledge to create their your interactive installations.

Projection mapping is the art of using projectors to cast light, images, or videos onto any surface. It allows us to transform common objects and structures into interactive displays, and sculpt light in a way that will suit almost any environment.

We’ll learn to create custom audio and projection mapped visuals to be exhibited as an interactive installation at the end of the program.

The week will be divided into short units. First, we’ll dive into sound design and audio production. Students will be introduced to interactive audio, explore how audio can be used in immersive art installations, and learn how to generate their own sounds. Next, we’ll explore the fundamentals of projection mapping, including the basics of software utilization, calibration techniques, and content creation. We’ll then pair our projection mapped visuals with live, responsive audio to create a fully interactive installation.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll have learned how to produce digital sounds, animate spaces, transform visuals, and create your own projection mapping projects.
