Digital #MediaArt(s) Numérique(s)

Trained at the University of Lyon II and ARFIS Guillaume Marmin is a French visual artist.

His work, connected from the beginning to the music scene and performing arts, is part of a revival of the visual creation by overcoming traditional forms of storytelling and traditional performing media. Influenced by experimental filmmakers such as Len Lye or Stan Brakhage, Guillaume Marmin is looking for a new synaesthetic alphabet, a common language between images and sounds, rhythms, contrast and sleek moving figures.

In order to offer new media on this new language, the work of Guillaume Marmin is taken away from the traditionnal screen to test all types of media: mapping on 3D sculptures and buildings, projection on photography and screen printing, bodies in motion and smoke. His immersive works in public space consisting of collaborations between architects, musicians and lighting designers.

Projection Mapping Central is a community resource to learn about, promote and experience projection mapping. The website is curated by a handful of people researching projection mapping as PhD students. 

The website was created because we are frequently contacted by artists, marketing agencies, basketball teams and other random entities looking for projection mapping (spatial augmented reality) consulting. Unfortunately, as PhD students don’t have the time to aid in artistic or commercial endeavors. We started by compiling a list of projection mapping design firms, which turned into Projection Mapping Central. We invite the community to help make this the main resource for projection mapping.

GOLEM is a concept that uses sculpture and video to create an uncanny feeling.

Vanishing Point employs perspective as both tool and visual outcome to reshape, redefine and represent a space. Inspired by sketches of Leon Battista Alberti, Leonardo DaVinci and Albrecht Dürer, UVA sends lines into space from an arbitrary vanishing point, creating different volumes, divisions and rooms to be explored by the audience.
