French creative studio Le3 has been terrorising Paris in recent days with its latest art installation, called Golden Tiger. The team is projecting recorded footage of a running tiger onto the streets of Paris from a moving vehicle. The apparent running speed of the beast is controlled by the speed of car, via sensors in its wheels.
A few commentators have
pointed out that the
project is rather similar to
one executed in Brazil back
in 2005, but a
quick comparison shows a much
better quality of projection and
smoother animation. Things in
street mapping have clearly moved on.
