From February 4 – 28 between dusk to dawn, 20 robotic spotlight will create a canopy of lights over English Bay known as Vectorial Elevation. The art work was created by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer from Montreal for the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad.
Vectorial Elevation is an interactive artwork that allows participants to transform the sky over Vancouver, Canada. Using a three-dimensional interface, this web site lets you design huge light sculptures by directing 20 robotic searchlights located around English Bay. A web page is made for each participant with photos of their design from four cameras located around the city.
The other day I got to test this out and created my own design which was quickly displayed for all to see.
The designs change every 12 seconds and if you can’t make it to Vancouver, you can see live streaming video of the designs from 4 cameras positioned around the area.
If you’d like to see more photos, please check out my Flickr set on some of the designs I captured the other day.
Oh wow! That is so cool! I’ve never seen like that before (pardon my ignorance) ! Whew! I wish we have like that in here.. It must be so cool to watch those ray of lights glowing in the night..
