A continuation of a spring collaboration studio, 3 Parsons’ students, 3 Parsons' Alumni, and New York City’s Submedia LLC Advertising have created an interactive installation in Union Square, NYC.
“Union Square in Motion” is a public intervention consisting of two digital linear lenticular zoetropes that uses a person's own motion to make still images appear animated. It is comprised of 31 animations, 9 monitors, 9 custom-cut lenses, 9 modems, 1 router, and a laptop running custom code to loop the animations.
They are a momentary distraction from the hustle and bustle of one the busiest commuter locations in New York City. 34,730,692 people rode through the station last year.
The goal of this installation is to give these riders a break, making the experience a little more interesting and enjoyable.
