Glocal: Prototype Exhibition Launch!
Writing by Jessica on Tuesday, 14 of October , 2008 at 10:46 pm
Dear Glocal Participants (well, those of you nearby),
This October 18th is your chance to finally see the fruits of your labour! The Surrey Art Gallery Techlab is hosting an afternoon open-house from 1-5pm to show you some of the achievements of the Glocal Project!!
As you know, the Glocal artist team has been busy in the TechLab hacking, coding and building systems to manipulate how we make, view, and think about digital photography. Now, their interactive exhibit invites visitors to experience thousands of photographs made locally, and globally, on a giant touchable screen! The interactive prototype uses a specially-designed camera vision to sense the movement of your hands across the table, revealing photographs connected by human and machine perspectives.
This afternoon event will also invite you into the TechLab to experiment with custom built digital cameras – like a remote controlled toy car that takes photos!

Thanks Claude! Remember that we will continue to develop this over time. I would like to add you to our mailing list so that you can come out to see future versions of the giant screen!
