PIANETA MEZZASFERA

Short audiovisual constructed with analog means through which the principles of the nineteenth-century technique Pepper’s ghost are experimented. Using a cardboard model and plastic materials, moving images previously generated via video feedback were projected inside a transparent solid, on PVC sheets shaped inside it. The synthetic sound accompanies the approach towards the planet and emphasizes the atmospheric variations modulated inside it.
