Rotoprojektor is a research dealing with transformation of a film projection into physical space, using mechanical means and physiological phenomena of afterimage and persistence of vision. In a way, it is an attempt to transform the planar space of movie screen into an endless cylinder of Grimoin-Sanson’s Cinéorama by mechanical rotation.
During the open studio, Hrvoje Spudić will explore a set of parameters and combinations of a rotating moving image. By establishing a relation between the length of film sequence and rotation speed, the points of film sequence can be connected with points in real space.
