The October Series is a collection of light based artworks that bring the excitement of some of our larger projects to a series of immediately available wall hanging mini-installations. These artworks were unveiled on June 3rd 2008 at the Prima Design Show where Cinimod Studio was exhibited by International Art Consultants. The artworks display a seemingly impossible depth of three-dimensional light arrays.
The series debuts with two panels: “October Landscape” (1200 x 450mm) which is a journey through London captured digitally as a time-stretched record of the city lights and colours”, and “October Square” (700 x 700mm) which is study of colour and virtual shadows.
The panels are comprised of a highly engineered buildup of 4 different glass types, LEDs, embedded electronic control, and aluminium.
Also on display is the working prototype of a new interactive “digital furniture” surface, which takes the same design principles and introduces sensor inputs to create a real-time light pattern that interacts with the viewers and passerby’s. This will allow large linear lengths or even large areas of wall or floor panels to be imbued with the same engaging and interactive coloured light fields.
This range of exciting artworks feature an intriguing combination of three-dimensional arrays of interactive colour movements controlled in real-time by the environment within which it is placed.
