Welcome to the world of Mr. Beam, where building façades and interiors are fair game for alterations on a whim. The talented duo behind the project above hail from the Netherlands and have created works for respected organizations across Europe. They collaborate to create stunning audio/visual pieces involving projectors and architectural space. In this video, Mr. Beam transports the projection mapping technique inside to infuse a drab all-white room with color, pattern and style.
The result is impressive to say the least. It is by no means a revolutionary technology or technique, and has been demonstrated many times before by other artists (even in stunning, fluid 3D). What tickles my fancy is how "Living Room" speaks to my inner Sims obsession; the idea of instantly redesigning a living space gets me salivating like Pavlov's dogs. It's a futurist concept that could potentially lead to advancements in interior design and furnishing. Of course, projectors are likely to be supplanted by something else, perhaps a programmable OLED fabric. Conventional application of interior projection could also be used in tandem with theater productions or film sets. Whatever the case, I'm thrilled at the possibilities.
