One Day Poem Pavilion


Jiyeong Song created a solar-powered projector that speaks a poem over time. This extremely site-specific piece consists of a network of complex perforations. As the sun moves throughout the day, stanzas appear in the shadow of the structure and as seasons change, different poems are shown. The literature requires patience as only one stanza is revealed at a time as the day passes by. This transformation of typography in light and shadow beautifully displays the nature of the sun and exhibits the morphing qualities of our environment.

You Fade to Light


rAndom International showcases Philips Lumiblade OLEDs in their You Fade to Light installation. This piece allows the audience to physically interact with their reflection and shadow. The OLEDs when not illuminated have a mirror finish allowing two images of the viewer to be displayed at once. This interplay is stunningly beautiful!
