Sunday morning I stopped by Fort Mason to check out the Intel-sponsored Creators Project. I was told that 6,000 showed up the previous night for the technology-inspired art installations, talks, films & live music. The event has already blogged about itself here. On Sunday morning the installations were still up & being visited mostly by families wandering over from the farmers' market.
I really liked Chris Milk's The Treachery of Sanctuary, in which viewers see their projected silhouettes unnervingly transformed into birds. I was also punished by Barney Clay's Life on Mars Revisited, in which viewers are trapped in a room & blasted with a David Bowie music video played loud enough to break up kidney stones . After it was over, one of the viewers asked, "Do people actually like this?"§ The Creators Project
