Location Recon

As a group I feel we have a good, basic idea from which to build upon and experiment, using noise to represent the ‘life’ of an area, then taking that input and using it to change the exterior of the New Palace Theatre through projection of imagery that reflects that ‘life’ as we see it.


However this clearly needs exploring and developing, so to that end, the location itself seemed the most logical place which to start to explore, both in the physical space and practicality, and in observation to see what we can bring to the area.


Below is the first site (A) which is a doorway on the front of the building leading to the main road. Located near by is a bus shelter on the same side of the road, restaurants opposite, and with it being a main road there are many passing pedestrians and much traffic. This is a good location to get maximum exposure to a non-captive audience. Also the doorway is covered blocking out street light, making the projection more effective.



This is a scale drawing of the projection area showing all measurements and represented in a 20:1 scale when on A4 size material.
