Golden Tiger from Le3 on Vimeo.
“Golden Tiger” by French design studio Le3 features a projected tiger running through the streets of Paris. The tiger animation is projected from the window of the car, and the speed at which it plays is governed by the car’s speed. It is refreshing to see an urban projection which uses motion as its premise.

In this piece I walked around Flagstaff Hill in a large circle until the snow was flattened by my foot prints. I was looking at Simon Beck who has made a series of work by walking patterns in the snow. I found that by walking I find personal clarity, and by walking in circles you loose a sense of where you are in relation to the world around you. Although this is a simple task it leaves a behind a large circle of compressed snow that will be visible for a while, with a reference to a crop circle and all that that brings with it.
