Description
PATACHROMO™ is a light installation whose animated content is based on the concepts of CHROMOtherapy which is seen through PATAphysics prism. This program is presented through a sequence of 2 minute-long light animation slots. It enables you to tackle the wintry greyness with serenity thanks to the exposure of your chakras to a healing light given out by a 6.65 sq meter LED support.
Pataphysics is Alfred Jarry’s philosophy of studying what’s beyond metaphysics, or the study of beyond the awesome, in a way. Chromotherapy is the use of color and light “to balance energy wherever a person’s body be lacking, be it physical, emotional, spiritual, or mental,” according to Ye Ole Wikipedia. The ancient Egyptians used to build huge sunrooms that had the ability to change out the panes of glass with colored ones, the Chinese associate each organ of the body with a color, and if you’ve ever designed lighting with particular respect to manipulating the audience’s physiology with colors of light, you know that it’s easy to do. PATACHROMO is a mix of both of these things; watch the video, you’ll see what I mean.
[...] This year’s program will see massive 3D light projections of the Opera House and buildings around Circular Quay and The Rocks. The Opera House is the focal point of the event, featuring a huge line-up of local and international musicians and performers as well as the amazing projections on the sails by French digital projection artists Superbien.
