Diversified sets Modulo Pi record at Museum of Art + Light
www.avinteractive.com: The new Museum of Art + Light (MoA+L), in Kansas, has teamed up with technology solutions provider Diversified to redefine how visitors engage with art.
Central to the museum, which opens on 8 November, is an immersive space that covers a quarter of the total footprint. The space will feature more than 100 Epson projectors that will map about 3,400 sq metres of the walls and floor with up to 188 million pixels.

I wish this article actually told us what Modulo Pi was. Anyways, I thought it was weird that they have just hung up screens showing NFT artworks. Why not project them? Also, NTFs are usually boring and ugly. Aren't there so many more interesting artworks to show? It also occurred to me while reading this that it would be super difficult to get the color of each painting correct. Since you are projecting onto an unpredictable surface with a slightly different color each time and at vastly different distances and sometimes with completely different projectors, how can you maintain that consistency with the artwork? For performance art, maybe the integrity of the image matters slightly less as long as it basically looks the same and gets the point across, for example the projection design in & Juliet, but for something like fine art? Getting that image just right would matter a lot! Maybe not if they are NFTs, because probably people who like NFTs are not as concerned about the fine art aspect of the images.
Thank god there is a museum dedicated to art and light. I wish it wasn’t in Kansas though. I don’t think there’s enough appreciation towards what light does to certain forms of art. When I think of a set on stage, it’s so emotionless and stagnant until light hits it and moves and changes. I’ve always had such an appreciation for lighting design and how it really brings art to life. I think it's so cool, all the technical aspects that are going on for this next exhibition. They are really setting the bar high with their 100+ projectors and 188 million pixels. The art projected is beautiful as well, displaying an immersive atmosphere of Renoir’s work. Overall very cool and I hope that they open a location in a state near here!
