InPark Magazine: Painting with Light (PWL) was pleased to develop and install state-of-the-art projection mapping, creative lighting design and other AV technologies to bring the QUAKE Experience alive in Lisbon. The 90-minute walk-through experience is located in the QUAKE Lisbon Earthquake Center, a new building on the Belém area in Lisbon. During eleven timed and show-controlled scenes, visitors can enjoy a spectacle through a wide range of immersive experiences.

I find this article so interesting and this experience that is included in this museum I feel like is really interesting. The way they took this event and brought audiences into it and used light to feel like they were there. It is really cool how much light can do and how immersive it can be. It is really cool to read about how they broke the traditional barrier and broke what can be done and surprised people and audiences. It is also really interesting how they make you feel like you're in a different environment and still find a way to bring entertainment to a serious event. The fact that this serious event can be brought into an interesting immersive event that borders on the line of Entertainment and educational. This is a really cool piece because they have that perfect balance of seriousness of the event and entertainment at the same time.
I always love seeing instances of projections design within the modern world, because it is such a new and almost stigmatized medium of theatrical design, and immersive design as a whole. I think one of the coolest aspects of this installation is most definitely their ability to creatively express the sensations and feelings of natural disasters through media, sound, and lighting design. One specific aspect the installation really plays to is how we can use these different mediums of design to effectively communicate emotional triggers within an atmosphere, and create an overall design that effectively draws in the audience. I think, overall, it would have been really cool to see the article include filmed segments of the installation to give the audience a better understanding of what exactly happened during the installation that you cannot gain from simply looking at the photos available throughout the article.
