I juli 2011 började utvecklingen av projektet – efter att Jesper Wachtmeister / Solaris Filmproduktion hade blivit beviljat startstöd från Kulturbryggan. Under några månader gjordes en serie projektionsexperiment som testades på en 50x50cm husmodell.

Frågorna var många.

Kunde man få en husfasad att se ut som att den var gjord av spegelglas? Kunde man ge illusionen av att fasaden fick extruderade ornament – som t.o.m. flöt i luften framför fasaden? Kunde man få det att se ut som att man såg igenom väggen? Gick det att skicka sms till pratbubblor som dök upp från fönster på fasaden?

Efter en serie försök och tester hade vi lärt oss vilka begränsningarna var – och vad som var möjligt.

Här nedan kan Ni se resultaten från dessa experiment.

I.R.I.S. – REFLECTION

Part one in the series of 3D projection mapping experiments named I.R.I.S.A transformation of traditional architecture into glass architecture while at the same time creating the illusion of a series of new locations for the building itself.

I.R.I.S. – WORD BUBBLES

Part four in the series of 3D projection mapping experiments named I.R.I.S.An interactive installation making it possible to send a text message that will appear on the facade. By adding an exclamation mark, text appears in a scream bubble. By adding a smiley, text appears in a think bubble.
