yo,

If u are a FG addict you will have probably realized that the last 9-10 days we are laying low and not doing our usual stuff, a.k.a making fun of our beloved architecture world.

So lets do it right and post something worth sharing

Adam Somlai – Fischer

(link to his vimeo account)

An artistic installation built by Bengt Sjölén and Adam Somlai-Fischer and displayed at Belsay Hall, UK, 2007 summer, Aleph is an experimental public display, that is using the spaces, people and objects it faces as a palette to display messages from hidden viewpoints. When looking at a small mirror, it reflects a fraction of the space around us, when looking at a mirror façade, it reflects most things around us, containing segments that are dark or bright, red or green. But if we build a matrix of small mirrors, which can adjust their tilt according to the site they are facing, we can create a display that uses the ever changing flux of the place to show images from certain points in space.
