'8-bit invaders' projection mapping by pavel novák
'8-bit invader' is a work of projection mapping created by czech designer pavel novák for the 5th anniversary of tomas bata university'sdepartment of visual arts in zlín, czech republic.
the display playfully conflates the real and virtual worlds, first using the edifice simply as a surface onto which novák's own fictional game 'furniture catchers' is loaded via the command line. for a few seconds, pixelated people appear in the sites of the building's real windows to drop furniture, which a digital truck on street level moves to try to catch. after an alleged system error converts the building temporarily into the 'blue screen of death', a series of iconic games are displayed in play, with architecture elements of the building incorporated into the gaming landscape.
