The bustling Shinjuku business and entertainment district of Tokyo is about to host what is billed as the largest permanent projection mapping experience – nightly shows on a 48-storey office tower.
Starting Feb. 25th, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government is hosting the free nightly projection mapping displays – calling it “Tokyo Night & Light.”
The year-round event that will run on the eastern-facing facade of a local government building – exotically named Main Building No.1. The total projected canvas is approximately 127 meters in height and about 110 meters wide.
The shows will be 10-to-15 minutes and run at half-hour intervals, once it gets dark. The local government’s goal is to attract more out-of-towners to the district.
No word that I can find on the creative and technical companies behind the project.
