body>data>space ideaspheres are beautiful globe like balloons which act as projection screens for digital images enabling a 3d effect for the imagery. They can be installed as part of an exhibition or on their own, individually or in with multiple balloons of different shapes and sizes. We can also run workshops using the ideaspheres.
Our ideaspheres hang in foyers, lobbies, theatre entrances and exhibition spaces and can show multiple projected loops of diverse visual materials (either made in house by the body>data>space visual team or made during a workshop). With a live mix of videos and stills from the body>data>space content pool, the sphere’s are suspended, beautiful, sensual and jewel like.
This body>data>space project has developed out of an artistic collaboration where body>data>space designed, engineered and installed a series of large three metre diameter inflatable spheres for projected moving images. The balloons are are kept inflated by an integral fan at the top, and are supported by lightweight metal cabling.
The ideaspheres have been used at many events, clubs and arts venues including the Big Chill Bar, Brick Lane in East London for the Christmas/New Year 2004 festive period; The Action for Brazil’s Children Trust (ABC Trust), Future Shorts, SE1 Club London and Numero Festival in Lisbon, Artist Links Studio, Shanghai, Leftfield Tent at Glastonbury festival, Late at the Tate Britain, Centre Des Arts, Paris
ideaspheres has been supported by Designs in Air, Big Chill Bar, Mini Chill Festival, Future Shorts, Numero Projecta, Cybersonica, and Tate Britain with sponsorship from Epson.
