Project 6: Equilibrium - projection onto St. Catharina Church by Teresa Mar (artwork & photo ©) The projection on the St. Catherina Church is composed of images from the Internet, advertising leaflets, newspapers and magazines. The Austrian Teresa Mar merges these images into a colorful composition which slowly changes of atmosphere. Some images, such as women's faces, human figures or angels, are still recognizable. Most images are so processed, cut and twisted we just perceive them as an abstract form. For Teresa Mar life can be reduced to a search for balance between light and dark. In order to achieve this balance moments of silence and contemplation are necessary. With Equilibrium she connects the church as a mystical place with a stream of images in which the opposites figuration and abstraction, but also light and dark, form a fragile balance. The sound, which could be heard on the place in front of the church, was from Michael Trommer and Dubreak.© of photos and artwork Teresa Mar 4 PANI BP12Platinum with slide changer and dimming shutter working for this project.

Project 7: Rejoice in the Lamb - light and projection installation inside of St. Catharina Church by Michel Suk (artwork & photo ©) The 70-strong Philips Philharmonic Choir gave three concerts at the St. Catherina Church where light and projections played a major role. Led by Gijs Leenaars they performed Rejoice the Lamb by Benjamin Britten, accompanied by organ and soloists. The piece is written on the acoustics of a large church and takes advantage of the reverberation in the building. During the remaining day's of the festival a recording of the performance was the fundament for the installation of Lighting artist and designer Michel Suk. Each part of the abstract piece was translated into images that showed a relation to the somewhat disturbed mental state of the composer who was suffering from a mental disease at the time he wrote the play. Rejoice in the Lamb consists of several parts that differs in character, sometimes mysterious and peaceful, sometimes powerful and rebellious. Michel Suk translated vocal and musical atmospheres into a play of lighting and projected images. Light and sound conducted the public into an adventure of space, light, shadow and color. Using the old church as a canvas for the Pani projections, the images not only related to the musical composition but also showed a breathtaking interaction between projections and the architecture of the church. Equipment used: two PANI BP4CT, slide changer AMD32 and dimming shutter, varity of led lighting fixtures from Philips type Colorreach and Color Blast, controls: MA Ultralight

Project 18: Rolling - projection onto Market Square by Peter Kozma (artwork & photo ©) Peter Kozma realizes projections of an enormous size. By using large numbers of projectors he can lighten up buildings, but also blocks and even squares in their entirety. Using light, he foresees the location of an extra layer, focuses on distinctive elements and puts other ones to the background. For GLOW he changed the look of the Market square completely. All sides of the square were illuminated, so the visitor feeled surrounded by the installation. By use of 21 large format slide projectors and a sound system an integrated story had been told. Slowly shifting images provided an ever-changing composition that gradually became more complex and colourful.
