About this event
Nele Ponce (ecdysis.exp) builds immersive rooms out of light and soft materials: projection passing through organza, glowing on sheer fabric, scattering off mylar, catching on frosted glass. This hands-on workshop is an introduction to her approach to projection mapping, and you’ll leave having made a small piece of your own.
You’ll learn the basics of MadMapper, the projection mapping software she uses in her installations. Then you’ll spend time playing with how soft materials catch, diffuse, reflect and cast light. Finally, you’ll work in pairs using her layering method, fill → window → light, to build a small glowing vignette. The night ends with a walkthrough of everyone’s pieces.
What you’ll learn
- How to map video onto surfaces in MadMapper - How different materials change projected light - Nele’s method for building depth: a fill, a window, and light on fabric Details
- No experience needed - 16 people max, working in pairs with one mini projector per pair - Projectors and materials provided - Bring a laptop (Mac or Windows) with the free MadMapper demo installed: madmapper.com/download - $105
