“Light Construction” uses digital technologies, using light, shadows, colors, pictures, infrastructure, sounds etc, to reconstruct a scene of public infrastructure. This enables the possibility of interaction between digital media, infrastructure and public spaces, enabling the public to participate and enjoy the show outdoors.
Through light, we can see new forms of infrastructure: when the light changes we can see changes in infrastructural forms and shapes. An actual wall and light construction creates a virtual interface, revealing a line that exists between continuously missing, continuously changing forms and shapes, an infrastructure form caused by weaving light and sounds. “Light Construction” uses digital technology to create new “incidents”, utilizing light, shadows, and infrastructures to create virtual infrastructural scenery, moving our inner senses, making us imagine a scene that is out of our reality.
A box and virtual network space, walking out of the Fine Arts Museum, “Light Construction” kicks off a brand new model of conversation between digital media and people in the city.
About The Center for Art and Technology:
The “Center for Art and Technology” of Taipei National University of the Arts, was established in 1992. Previously known as The Technology and Art Research Center, this center has always played the role of integrating art and technology in Taiwan. It has also collaborated with many international organizations. The center has also set up research divisions such as the “Computer Music Lab”, “Performing Technology Lab” etc to aggressively promote Taiwan’s digital technology and its application in the art sphere, resulting in daring and avant-garde developments and creations. Its main goals are to fully support the display of technology and art and to serve as a linking platform, kicking off related research and creations for technology and art. Not only is the “Center for Art and Technology” one of the most important characteristics of Taipei National University of the Arts, it continuously attempts to commence the development of interactive, cross-boundary “future art” possibilities between art and technology.
