HERO. Boughton House. Northamptonshire.

This temporary showing went live at the weekend. Last night a beautiful river mist arrived, which was exactly what we'd wanted. The mist gently swirled in the lasers creating rippling pockets of bright light along the canalised river. Viewing will be available again on March 3rd and 4th.

Members of the public have been bringing their cameras and taking some terrific shots. Here are two fine examples.

LED tidal matrix - Seaham

The LED and wire matrix for the reception area of the PCT building in Seaham is  currently being constructed. The 2000 or so LEDS form a three dimensional matrix of individually programmable LEDs. The lights will change colour in relation to the tidal movement at Seaham creating a gentle wave of moving light.


The column of light is 2.3m high.


Thanks to Mr Seaman and Mr Foulk.

Living

Boughton House, Northamptonshire

The final laser test last night in freezing conditions. The canalised river at Boughton House was frozen. The reflections were stilted. The air felt like it crackled. Pretty much a full moon. 


Enormous thanks again to Graham Callister, Dal Badial, Andrew Hilton and Boughton House.




The piece is viewable from 6.30-8.30pm on Feb 25th, 26th and March 3rd and 4th.

Boughton House, Northamptonshire

Another laser test shining a laser under the bridge and along the length of the canalised river in the grounds of Boughton House. In the rain the laser beam started to visually break up apart from when protected by the bridge. 


Dates for the temporary piece are Feb 25th and 26th and again on March 3rd and 4th.


Massive thanks to Graham Callister, Dal Badial and Boughton House. Thanks also to Andrew Hilton for the photographs.
