Right Up This Class' Alley- Video-Mapping Project in Prague


The 600 Years from the macula on Vimeo.

I really don't think words do this amazing video justice, but I need to at least provide some background as to what it is. This is a capturing of the video-mapping masterpiece that is the 600th birthday celebration of a clocktower in the city of Prague. I highly recommend anyone to watch this video, but I figured Professor Baldwin might be particularly interested in it for three reasons: one, it shows with loud enthusiasm how the creative and captivating aspects of technology and spectacle know absolutely no bounds; two, it incorporates history into the arts, displaying how the two can be intertwined harmoniously and, moreover, how much the two actually correlate; and three, it portrays in a genius fashion that jaw-dropping innovation can be created with any media-- in this particular case, it's nothing but a wall of a clock tower and a few computers. Enjoy!
