VIDEO PAINTING FROM SWEATSHOPPE

Posted in New Art

Sweatshoppe, a multimedia project from Blake Shaw and Bruno Levy allows artists  to  “paint” video onto any surface with LED paint rollers. “In an effort to establish new platforms for public art and performance, SWEATSHOPPE has developed a new interactive technology that enables them to explore the relationship between video, mark making and architecture. “

The LED paint rollers are tracked by video control software where once the drawing commands are created, the strokes can then be textured with video images. Nerd Alert! But damn, this is pretty cool stuff.  You need to check out this video, shot live in Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan. So sweet.
