Starry Nite
Starry Nite was presented using Cooper's Cinema-Trike, a human-powered 35mm film projection system built from an adult-sized tricycle. While a member from the audience pedals the bike Cooper performed live image manipulations to the film being projected.
To add additional layers to this performance Cooper also used a 16mm film projector and simultaneously manipulated these images along with the 35mm film. As you watch the two films morph into one, continuously changing, layers being added and new textures developed. A starry nite takes the audience on an exploration of the stars and travel the Milky Way. |
