So While waitng for various bits of wall to dry, I fired up a old projector and tryed simple projection mapping, to see if i could get a sky working, so here i simply pointed the projector at back wall, and did no stretching, and masking of videos (see "VTp Projection mapping" on youtube for info) but basically you would have seen projection mapping used on sides of buildings at events like New years celebrations,
My plan is to sort out a newer (not so noisey) projector, in fact 2 in sync and and some movement in the river water, and in the trees, (like a suttle breaze), Other options include smoke from chimneys, washing moving on the line in back garderns, birds etc. I also want to see if other weathers will work like snowing, fog, rain, with 2 videos one on ground of rain hiting it and one in sky of rain falling. The machine will be playing ambient sounds of the day and controling all enviomental aspects leaving the main machine to only deal with train movemnet, signaling etc.
The hole idea of layout was a interactive lamp in room to sit and watch or play with
now back to finishing the wall..
