The O2 Memory Project |

The close commercial and creative cooperation between Litestructures and the artist, Jason Bruges, has produced another memorable result in the shape of the 02 Memory Project. Essentially, this is a dodecahedral cyclorama, using time-lapse photography and huge, instant-access digital memory to create an interactive viewer experience, spanning a 360 degree panorama and including the entire history of the installation. Measuring 4.2m high, and with a diameter of 8.5m, the 12-sided installation is a modular design, for ease of installation and transportability. The complete installation takes 1 day to build and 5-6 hours to disassemble. To permit outdoor locations, it had to be weatherproof, while to protect the electronics within, it had also to be waterproof. The double walled structure incorporates 11 plasma screens and houses 11 digital cameras, with the wall void being large enough to accommodate both the electronics and allow fitter access. The whole installation stands on its own circular stage. The interior of the structure features black dibond panels with a 12-faceted dibond roof. The outer structure is an 8.5m diameter aluminium frame, clad with 3mm brush-finished dibond, slotted at intervals for light and camera housings. The 02 Memory installation has already toured to London, Edinburgh and Liverpool with the intention being that its eventual permanent home will be at the 02 Arena. Thanks to the close cooperation between Jason Bruges and Litestructures was 'born' as a pre-build in the Litestructures Studios. Exhibition Projects
