GEOLOGICAL 3D PROJECTION MAPPING MOAB, UT AND THE FEATHERS, WA

 

While traveling through the scenic landscapes surrounding Moab, UT it occurred that some 3D projection mapping would look amazing on the red cliffs!

After a little setup, some crafty software, and a little experimentation, a workflow emerged that allowed one to effectively “paint” the cliff-sides with projected light.



It was so enjoyable to make use of the intuitive interface between hand and digital brush while playing with the natural features of the geological formations.




Another great example of this was at “The Feathers” just inside the “Frenchman Coulee Park” in eastern Washington State. In this example another cliffside was chosen for activation at night via projected light.

It’s such a great combination of high tech digital art with timeless rock formations nature has worked on for eons. Throw in a starry backdrop and a few rock climbing passerby’s and it’s a genuine Lumenarius experience!
