On the issue of cropping of LAIKA supplied media at Smith Hall…

NOTE: Image cropping seen here is exclusively due to the fact that we only had 2 of 3 windows within a single projection zone covered for our projection test.— sorry for this confusing detail!

Basic, proposed treatment

Seen below here is a video transition style Andrew proposes to incorporate. Most simply put, the individual vertical windows are incorporated as “transitional tiles” integrating the movement of scenes into the architecture of the building, and bringing a stylistic unify the movement of the entirety of the five projection zones .

INFINIFATHOM

“The infinity mirror effect never gets old.”

–Visitor

While the effect of the mirrors may only allude to the concept of infinity, the lived experience of this environment—with its infusion of video and sound design, plus dynamic lighting which introduces shifting lines of sight—continually reinvents the experience.

This continual reinvention sustains a bridge to the deeper mind, which earnestly reaches for and wrestles with the concept of infinity.

The engagement unfolds across three interconnected chambers, separated by two-way mirrors. As lighting transitions between spaces—bright in one chamber, dim in another—the mirrored surfaces shift between reflecting the light and allowing it to pass through. At times, you may see into an adjacent chamber; at others, you’re met with multiplied images of yourself within your immediate chamber.

This oscillation between inward reflection and an “infinite” outward vision stimulates a more conscious, playful connection with our sense of orientation—an internal negotiation which may evolve into an exercise in self-perception and in navigating one’s place within the infinite.
