MCLAREN WALL-TO-WALL
Kid Koala and Hololabs collaborate to present an installation as part of the McLaren Wall-to-Wall initiative of the National Film Board of Canada (NFB) and the Quartier des Spectacles in Montreal, celebrating the 100th birthday of Norman McLaren. Located outside Théâtre Maisonneuve at Place des Arts, Montreal from April 11- June 1, 2014.
How it works: Place ‘dots’ (coloured blocks) on a film strip conveyor belt and watch as they come to life as they are projected onto Théâtre Maisonneuve at Place des Arts. Each colour plays a unique sound that is triggered while left/ right placement on the film strip defines the musical note. Compose your own melodies by arranging patterns of dots on film, just as Norman McLaren did back in 1940.
