This Program focused on the basics of projection mapping as a form of non-linear storytelling, creating playgrounds with light. This workshop took place at BULK Space Media Lab, offering each participant the space for experimentation with their own footage. No experience was required for this workshop.
Participating Artists & Collaborators:
Merel Noorlander (they/them) is an artist, curator and educator navigating between Salt Lake City, Detroit and Amsterdam (The Netherlands), who grew up in the Red-Light District, amongst a self-chosen queer family, and captain of their boat. They investigate expanded forms of media that focus on collective empowerment within sex tech, community-based media design and participatory processes, in strong collaboration with LGBTQIA+ communities. They are interested in how storytelling can function as a guide, a tool — an instrument for pleasure, a playground for imagination right at each person’s doorstep. They currently lead a Design Research through Video & Projection Mapping at the Multi-Disciplinary Design Division (MDD), University of Utah.
