PRISMS is digital media installation featuring six 260-square foot LED boxes suspended from the ceiling of HSBC Place, giving it the honor of being Edmonton’s first digital art installation.

Working with ESI Design, I designed and implemented a show control system to manage and render real time and prerendered content for PRISMS, programmed as a multi-GPU solution using TouchDesigner. The software enabled seamless transitions between multiple generative scenes with an extremely large canvas size.

From ESI Design’s release:

Like jewels in a jewel box, the installation, titled Prisms, mixes hyperlocal imagery with abstract art. It shows scenes inspired by Edmonton, the nighttime sky, and the ocean, and incorporates live data including time of day, season and weather.
