Using the dark to communicate

Darkness can be used to an advertisers advantage. Take new york for example, infact the majority of big american cities are always lit up at night by advertisements and such. Piccadily circus in London is famous for its birghtly lit advertisements.

How about using phosphorescent inks in new and unusual ways to create another form of dark to light advertising?

Below is a nice project; a glow in the dark moon table. Im sure we’d all want one of these somewhere round the house? or maybe not?

I’d like to research phosphorescent inks anyway.

Japanese creative Barcodes

A sweet idea using barcodes as an art form is already in progress over in Japan. Really shows how taking something so simple from everyday life can be manipulated…

Miniature Projection

So it seems there is a future for DLP(digital light processing technology) pico-projectors in either a standalone format or as integrated modules in handheld devices.

Not so high quality as yet (protoype), but if it does get anywhere near HD then this could change the way we see things portably. See lots of potential in this..

Could this be the new platform for presenting our work as we move??

I hope not!
