The below video is a proof of concept I've been thinking of where I'm trying to bring two different times together, instead of many spaces. I like the idea of setting this up outside and using the projection screen as a sort of window. For instance I would go to a location during the day and return at twilight and project the earlier image into the landscape.
In my initial proof of concept I tried to make sure the screen and the video would line back up into the scene with the use of the ever magical gaffer tape to mark object places, I think I managed this quite well, but it seems that the lens curvature from my camera will be an issue until I can figure out at what focal length the image becomes flat again.
Here is the proof of concept video I made anyway:
The scenes that didn't line up become really obvious when there is a strong visual reference, for example the door in the hallway. I do like the way people step through each window, I think that could be quite interesting.
As much as I like this idea I'm a bit wary of doing something with time, the subject has been explored so thoroughly I'm not sure how I could add a new perspective. I have begun to think more about how to present my videos in a more interesting way. Soon I may show the results of projecting through things like dry ice and fog and haze, exciting times!
