Vivid Light transforms Sydney into a wonderland of 'light art' sculptures, innovative installations and grand-scale projections for all to enjoy.
May 23 - 9 June 2014
A 3D-mapped projection transforms the façade of Customs House into a series of massive ‘musical sculptures’, in a poetic explosion of light, colour and sound. Each of these ‘sculptures’ depicts a family of musical instruments which you can ‘play’ in real time. Take your place in front of throngs of festival-goers and create a visual and sonic masterpiece on the face of this iconic Sydney edifice. Vivid Sydney is delighted to welcome back Danny Rose, the design team that last year created an extravaganza of colour and light on the façade of Customs House, with Move Your Building. This year, the team again transforms the frontage of this historic landmark to bring you Play Me! , another breathtaking, interactive, 3D-mapped projection. You select one of the ‘musical sculptures’ from a touch screen, get onto a platform in front of Customs House and ‘play’ the sculpture, bringing it to life in glorious torrents of ever-changing colour, light, form and sound.

Arclight: Artists: Studio Workshop (Chris Knapp (Australia) / Jonathan Nelson (Australia)) + Matsys (Andrew Kudless (USA))
Collaborators: Bond University (Nathan Freeman (Australia) + Bollinger-Grohmann (Sascha Bohnenberger (Germany)) + Media Architecture Institute / UNSW (Matthias Hausler (Germany) / Eliot Rosenburg (Australia) / Rebekah Araullo (Australia) / Marius Hoggenmuller (Germany))
Arclight is an architecturally designed, environmentally inspired structure that echoes the native mangroves of Australia’s waterways. Through its complex geometry and architectural form, Arclight creates a dense thicket of clustered synthetic branch structures which incorporate interactive lighting technology programmed to interpret environmental conditions.
The project exploits experimental and cutting-edge architectural approaches: computer-aided manufacturing created by advanced fabrication methods, and computational software which provides designers with the digital tools to make buildings both complex and sustainable.
Arclight creates an immersive atmosphere of sculptural, bio-inspired forms that is intensified with LED lights programmed to interpret ambient and environmental phenomena (such as temperature, wind speed, and humidity), which are sensed and expressed via patterns and colours emitted by LED cells.

IF you treasure the self-evident, endowed by creator, unalienable rights which the Declaration of Independence celebrated and promised this new country would uphold;
IF you abhor corporations claiming those unalienable rights as "corporate persons;" and think billionaires manipulating elections with their wealth is corrupting our democracy to the core;
THEN you probably agree that it is time to tap into the United States' revolutionary roots and in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence instigate a nonviolent American Revolution against oligarchic rule.
All across America, from New Hampshire to California, We the People are beginning to rise up in an autonomous, nonviolent, and rolling rebellion for real democracy. The Backbone Campaign, Popular Resistance, and other
allies have created Rolling Rebellion for Real Democracy with an action map and activist toolkits to bolster this burgeoning US Democracy Movement.
From the night of July 4th - July 12th, we are supporting a series of non-violent, artfully rebellious events around the country to get money out of politics, showcase the emergent US Democracy Movement, and spur on its escalating fight for real democracy. Check our action map to join a Rolling Rebellion action near you, or sign up to host your own.

Cycloide
by Alan Rose
Cycloide investigates the boundary between order and chaos.
Drawing heavily from minimalism and op art of the 60s, the geometric forms and repetition of the piece create subconscious order which is comfortable for the viewer, yet the moving colour and light is Rose’s way of disturbing the order with chaos.

"Another great turnout in Spokane by the sane people who are against the proposed coal terminal in Longview.
A very big thank you to the folks who traveled from Montana and Idaho to speak their mind and show unity with all who oppose this bad idea to kill people and destroy our environment to "create" a few obsolete jobs. Most of which are simply temporary in nature.
"Also a GIANT THANK YOU to Eric, Martin and all the Backbone organization for your support to make this as visual and energetic as possible. We always love to see you not because you all are so effective and organized but we also think the world of you as people and Warriors for what is best for humanity and our environment. We were able to show the Corporations what the people really want for this region.
Also thank you to all the Tribal members who have shown your support and your fight to help motivate us all. We are all in this fight together.
Every red shirt attending and any supporters including elected officials should feel proud to stand with the majority even when it feels like a minority. We are on the right side of history.

Move Over Damien: Artist: Alan Rose
Move Over Damien is a cheeky take on UK artist Damien Hirst’s ‘spot paintings’ (to date numbering more than 1400), which feature grids of static, coloured dots in random and seemingly infinite variations. Australian artist Alan Rose has updated Hirst’s concept, making it 3D and kinetic by adding light, movement, complex patterns and music.
A 7.9-sq-m grid of LED lights creates a canvass of coloured spots. However, as the viewer passes along the work, the spots continuously change colour and shape, moving from round to oval forms. When viewed close up, the dots have hints of diagonal light and seem to be assembled randomly, but when seen from other perspectives they appear as rows of octagonal patterns.
The piece is accompanied by minimalist music composed by Sherman Tang. The artist’s aim is to suspend the viewer between order and chaos and in doing so create a moment of prolonged contemplation.

Spectra: Artists: Artists: Angus Stevens & Frances Ng
Spêc’tra explores the way space is perceived by challenging and confounding our perception of light with the use of continuing and repeated colour phasing. As a result, every person will affect and be affected by the installation in a different way.
The work is made from a framed aluminium cube, covered in a stretched translucent sheet of Barrisol PVC. It is internally lit by LEDs, controlled through a digital interface.
Spectra interprets our ‘trichromatic’ colour vision, which is made possible through the three ‘cones’ in the retina of the human eye. Each of these responds to a different wavelength of light and, by combining them, ‘create’ colour. The three input sensors in front of Spectra represent the red, green and blue cones. When each individual sensor is activated, that correlating shade of red, green and blue will incrementally add or subtract to create ‘all possible colours’ inside Spectra, challenging our perception of colour.
The average human eye can perceive over 10 million colours. How many can you see within Spectra?
