Projecting Particles

"Projecting Particles" is an international educational initiative by Agnes Chavez of STEMarts LAB, blending art and science to unravel the complexities of particle physics. OMAi contribute their expertise in projection art to create a unique creative learning experience for the participating students.

STEMarts LAB writes about the project:

Through a partnership with ATLAS Experiment at CERN, home of the Large Hadron Collider, students travel virtually to the ATLAS control center or experience face-to-face visits with physicists to learn first hand about particle physics. They explore projection art and cutting edge interactive installations and discover how radical new theories in particle physics can expand their approach to space and time and the world around them. Students learn to create their own projection art using Tagtool, an iPad app developed by artist Markus Dorninger/OMAi. They storyboard and choreograph a live projection on to a building and video/photo document their physics-inspired work.
