THE EYE
Client: Altibox / Viken Fiber
Type of work: Interactive installation
Type of client: Technology
Year produced: 2013
After having hosted a processing workshop with Grafill in Oslo with the brilliant Hermann from Art+Com in Berlin I got a bit overconfident. While doing another project for the Norwegian high-speed internet distributor Altibox, I pitched a lofty idea with laser projectors, custom software, lots of sensors and hours of beautiful film that would be sewn together into one beautiful and fantastic interactive installation.
The project was supposed to be rolled out on several locations in Norway, but ended up being displayed on the front of their offices in Porsgrunn, before there was some corporate restructuring and change of strategy.
The installation was brought back to life for a limited time in 2016 for the fifteen years of failure exhibition.
