There was precious little information on this projection over at Wooster Collective, apart from the artists name, Jaybo. The building is in Berlin, and the projection is amazing! (via Wooster Collective)

Space Collective, is the future of everything. Well the discussion of the future of everything anyway. A rich forum for the discussion of the overlap between the worlds of science fiction and our own world, Space Collective provides interesting opinions and visual ideas for the future.
Lorenzo Oggiano
Lorenzo Oggiano is a man of many mediums, working in photography, video, new media, installations and assemblages since 1964. His more recent work (specifically Quasi-Objects shown above) feature objects generated in 3D that appear to mimic the natural elements of the outside world.
Fez
While we’re on the topic of video games, Fez is another that I’ve been keeping tabs on for a while. Developed by indie games developer Kokomori, Fez takes the gap between 2D and 3D graphics to a new level. The game is played in 2D however you need to solve puzzles by rotating the environment in three dimensions. Here’s a video of Fez in action.
Spots
Spots (City Gaze) is a cool architectural installation in Berlin, depicting a giant blade runner-esque eye on the side of a building. 1984 eat your heart out!
LAb[au]
LAb[au] are a Belgium based digital design lab who are doing some pretty cool things with lighting and large-scale installations.
Chris Woebken
Chris Woebken is an interaction designer based in London. His portfolio has all sorts of wonderful experiments in this field but my favourite is his 2005 project ‘FlicFlex’ (which kinda reminds me of Flat Futures).
Barcode Plantage
Barcode Plantage is an interesting look at ordinary, everyday barcodes. Simply run your barcode through the application on their website and you will be presented with a great visualisation, showing where your product originated, the manufacturer and other tid bits of information.
