64 SQUARES © REVAD David Riley

A wall, a painted panel, a static programmable network connected studio camera, natural light enhanced and modified by led light, an led projector, paper, masking tape and marker pens. The led projector is driven by a Raspberry PI 3B+. The camera is a Raspberry PI 3B. Another Raspberry PI 3B is used as a file server. Animations and static projections courtesy of the GIMP, Processing and Python. Image finishing in the GIMP. All controlled from a Linux Mint laptop via VNC.

The intention is to use this space to build and record transient fusion wall installations. ‘Fusion’ in that there is a use of both real and virtual components and techniques. The final outcome of each exploration will be a photograph (as here) or a video.

This first outcome is called 64 SQUARES.

modernist coin wash

Three photo collages, recording outcomes from three Modernist Coin Wash events. Each coin wash was organised and run by the artists Lindall Pearce and Marion Piper at Angelika Studios (now Work Hall). They were very enjoyable creative experiences.
