FUTURE MACHINE Collaboration


The gems at Brighton Council have taken up a BANG collaboration project I took to them. FUTURE MACHINE is due to be unleashed on the streets of Brighton at this year’s White Night. BANG animators want to get all Nostradamus and look to the future. How do you begin to imagine what is to come?
During the night of Saturday 24th October, the animations created for the project will be projected directly onto the façade of Brighton's Unitarian Church. I love the idea of beaming a totally diverse collection of visions onto the walls of the city. A 30 second alien attack might be followed by a utopian 10 second loop, a grey dystopia, pixel madness, stopmotion spy-bots shimmying down the front of the building, abstract jangle- it’s going to be interesting.

Abbie Stanton’s made a little animation with the Future Machine mascot she built- it's on the BANG site. That there is Toc, he’s a little pod, who’s travelled a long way - and he’s going to be travelling all over the world in the next few months.
