The final presentation of the work will hopefully be seen as incredibly simple, but the complexity will be contained within the text- typed on the blog, pierced on the paper and projected onto the wall.
Another day of playing with projection….
How dark the room is will be important: a black room suggests cinema, a film, yet this is not what I am creating. So should the room be lighter? How light can it be before the paper qualities are totally lost? I think perhaps the walls could be painted grey in order to achieve some level of contrast. The space I have chosen for the projection does work quite well, but I think that it would benefit from a curtain of some sort to block out the small amount of light entering from the adjacent space.
Size is also vital: Should it be the size of a wall or kept to scale? The issue with the original installation was that it wasn’t immersing enough- the space above and below was too distracting- would this happen with the surrounding wall space around the projection? I think that I prefer it to fill the wall, but I have a tutorial in the morning where my tutor may have other ideas….
