The Edge, Queensland’s digital culture center, held their relaunch this month after some down time to recover from Brisbane’s monster floods. They asked us if we could provide some visuals that would be fresh and new- so we came up with some fun augmented reality Kinect hacks.
If you’re in Brisbane, would like to play with these and missed out at the launch event we will bringing it in again as part of the 2011 Ideas Festival. The installation will run all day 22 May @ The Edge. If you are interested in how it all works with this Kinect goodness we will also be presenting a making of at 12pm the same day.

Everyone is Happy Productions was asked to create a site specific light installation for Urban Art Projects (UAP). As a part of the Unlimited Asia-Pacific design triennial, UAP hosted a dinner bringing together 70 leading business people, policy makers, designers, researchers and academics. Speakers for the evening included Managing Director of the ABC Mark Scott, Unlimited Creative Director Ewan McEoin, and UAP CEO Ben Tait.
UAP is a specialist design consultancy creating site-specific art and design commissions for architectural and landscape environments. They have some pretty amazing work showcased on their website.
Everyone is Happy Productions developed a very fast and flexible projection mapping system which we were asked to present at Pecha Kucha Brisbane. This was part of that demonstration, however the same setup can very rapidly map out all sorts of shapes.
There are a couple of cuts, but NO post FX at all, I promise. Developed in VVVV.

We were asked to provide some projection mapping for the opening night of The Edge, SLQ’s new digital culture center in Brisbane, Australia. We used the late Anthony Pryor’s sculpture, Approaching Equilibrium, as a canvas.
Who says you need a white screen? Black steel will do just fine.

Please excuse the use of a below par camera. I thought it was still worth sharing, as it was quite impressive live. There are NO post FX in this video whatsoever, just some cuts in time.
