Puhhhhh, amazing form of visual illusion: »Box explores the synthesis of real and digital space through projection-mapping on moving surfaces. […] Bot & Dolly produced this work to serve as both an artistic statement and technical demonstration. It is the culmination of multiple technologies, including large scale robotics, projection mapping, and software engineering.« Tricks and truths.
The strange relationship between robots and donuts. American illustrator Eric Joyner is determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, which began somewhere in 2002. On his homepage, Joyner posted an extensive review of his work.

Recently, an amateur filmmaker shoots mind-blowing footage of a famous nightclub in Offenbach, Germany, as you have never seen it before. After fourteen years, the filmmaker was the first to be able to establish the true identity of this legendary place.
This great invention will certainly never change the world, but will find its place in the world of machines: »The Facadeprinter is a simple software controlled robot. It consists of a turn table with two axes and an air-pressure print head. The printer shoots the artwork from a distance dot by dot onto the chosen area. Using this method, inaccessible and uneven surfaces can be used for large scale prints. Artworks can be printed on buildings without costly scaffolding. The Facadeprinter is also a communication-tool. Even the application of the artwork is part of the message; straight and direct. A work of art is converted to a vector or pixel file and shot dot by dot onto the facade. The viewer watches the emerging artwork like the drawing of a magic pen.«
