Everyone, especially myself, were very intrigued with Bill Viola's interactive style of Video Art Installation. Personally, I really liked how a lot of his installations are pieces where the audience walks into it, separating it from everything else. Since there will be a lot going on in the Playground the night of the installation projects, the idea of having a project that is separated from everything else will really be a nice touch!
We are still brainstorming and working out the kinks but as of now we are going to take these four shadow boards (they are the same idea as a paint canvas but instead of a thick canvas fabric they are silk - the ones from The Calico Room) and put them into a square with one side that people can walk into. On the outside we are going to have lights (probably with gels in front of them) and people and/ or shapes that will be creating the shadows onto the outside of the shadow board while the audience is inside of the 4 boards all with different images projected onto them. We will also probably have some audio, whether its music, recorded sounds, etc., that will accompany our overall theme of the installation!
