Get ready for Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s VECTORIAL ELEVATION (lame name, groovy project):
Anyone, anywhere, can go here and coordinate twenty 10,000-watt spotlights in Kits and English Bay for 8 seconds; patterns will consecutively come to life all night, every night of the Olympics.
“The 10,000-watt lights will move and create patterns silently from locations in Vanier Park and Sunset Beach that cover an area of 100,000 square metres and be visible within 15 kilometres of the city’s downtown core, stretching to Richmond, the peaks of Cypress and Grouse mountains and freighters and boats on the water.”
Let’s do our best to use and abuse.
