1. 3D Prototyping & Fabrication
3. Installation & Mapping
Installed projection surfaces on the 930 pixels of the flag sculpture.
Fine-mapped each pixel individually with pre-prepared Touchdesigner template
Ran content and interactivity for the Smithsonian Administration to evaluate.
2. Projection Setup & Test
Prepared Touchdesigner file with KantanMapper operators for individually mapping the 930 pixels of the flag.
Designed and built a User Interface for operation during the installation.
Studied and altered the operators to reduce the GPU load by 50% for a faster framerate.
Designed interactive visuals with webcam to showcase the capabilities of such an installation to the Smithsonian Admin
1. 3D Prototyping & Fabrication
Prototyping:
Created a scale 3D model of the Star Spangled Banner Flag Sculpture at the Smithsonian Museum of American History
3D printed and assembled the model for projection mapping and content testing
Fabrication:
The clip consignment got delayed. So we ended up designing and laser-cut acrylic clips for attaching film surfaces to the 930 pixels on the Flag Sculpture for projection installation.
Fabricated a prototype of the SSB flag sculpture for projection testing. Designed interactivity and user interface for administering the final installation.
