Architecture on hallucinogens (video)

Architecture on hallucinogens (video)

    

555 KUBIK | facade projection | from urbanscreen on Vimeo.

No deep message in this post, just entertainment with an interesting deconstructive edge.  UrbanScreen has this to say about the video:

"The conception of this project consistently derives from its underlying architecture - the theoretic conception and visual pattern of the Hamburg Kunsthalle. The Basic idea of narration was to dissolve and break through the strict architecture of O. M. Ungers "Galerie der Gegenwart". Resultant permeabilty of the solid facade uncovers different interpretations of conception, geometry and aesthetics expressed through graphics and movement. A situation of reflexivity evolves - describing the constitution and spacious perception of this location by means of the building itself."

Enjoy.
