Augmenting PROTO

A project by Evan Kenaz Lee and Benjamin Abbott. PROTO is a digital production facility located in Gateshead. This project aims to introduce PROTO to a wider audience, such as possible collaborators or inventors, and even people who are not familiar with modern technologies. Our concept is aimed at projection mapping an interactive game onto the side of PROTOs immersive lab building. Our USP is while there ways of interacting with projection maps none have been as interactive at a scale the size of the PROTO building. For a projection mapping prototype we wanted to create something based on an interactive media such as video games. Inspired by the lines and lighting elements on the side of PROTOs current building we decided to come up with something inspired by the vintage arcade video game. As an early prototype we created an animation to show this off for our projection map.
