I wanted to project these photos I took while in Lake Placid in the dome. I thought it would be cool to see both from a different prospective especially the frozen waterfall one. I used photoshop to add the fisheye effect on both photos so it would fit in the dome.
When planning a light project that involves glow-in-the-dark elements and ultraviolet (UV) lighting, there are several factors and challenges to consider, especially when using specific materials and technologies such as glow-in-the-dark paint, black lights, and Tyvek suits. Here’s an expanded look at how to approach such a project, considering the tools and challenges mentioned:
Glow-in-the-dark paint absorbs light and then releases it slowly over time, creating a glowing effect in dark environments. This type of paint is typically phosphorescent and can be used on various surfaces
A common challenge with glow-in-the-dark spray paint is that it often requires activation by a strong light source before it will glow. UV light is particularly effective for this purpose. However, some users might expect these paints to glow without prior exposure to light or may not realize the intensity of light needed for activation.
Black lights emit UV light, which is invisible to the naked eye but can cause certain materials to fluoresce or appear to glow in the dark.
A significant limitation of relying on UV-reactive materials (including some glow-in-the-dark paints) is that their glowing effect is only visible under UV light. Once the UV light source is turned off, these materials will stop glowing. This dependence on continuous UV exposure can be a limitation for projects intended to glow independently of an external light source.
Tyvek suits are made from high-density polyethylene fibers, offering a balance of protection, durability, and comfort. They are often used in industrial and artistic applications to protect the wearer from chemicals or paint overspray.
For a project involving a Tyvek suit, applying glow-in-the-dark paint or UV-reactive paint can transform the suit into a glowing outfit under the right conditions (i.e., after exposure to UV light or in the presence of a black light).

I chose to create a 360º panoramic photograph of campus for my projection project. This photo is a combination of many drone shots stitched together in Photoshop. Still photography itself is a way to document reality, but 360º photography takes that to a whole new level, as you gain the ability to be deeply immersed and surrounded by the photograph. While 360º video can create a similar effect, current technology makes still photography the highest quality and most immersive way to view 360º content. This photo of campus is a vibrant and easily viewable in any 360º viewing software.
My idea was somewhat simple. We see a tent sitting in a void. Someone inside flashes a flashlight on and off spastically. But it hides a message. It’s Morse code, “This is a cry for help.” This symbolizes the importance of noticing the often overlooked and sometimes incomprehensible signs from those who may be going through a difficult mental health journey.

i wanted to project this onto a dorm building so that i could animate he alien abduction a person, i was not able to execute this but i made a simulation of what i wanted to look like.
Brick Light Projection Description – Carter Dunlap
Bricks are mundane, and don’t get that much of a second look. So, I thought it would be interesting if I projected the word brick onto each brick, and had the words move around and do different things. I created different patterns and a scroll/falling type of movement with the words to make the vibe/feel of these bricks more interesting/excitable. The story I wanted to tell was that just normal bricks being bricks can be seen as boring, unappealing, or mundane. However, if they spiced things up, moved around, and did something, they would seem more engaging, and to some or even themselves, have a purpose other than just existing. This story could also apply to people.
