Texas A&M University architecture students Adam Frye and Justus Cook lit up the fourth floor by the Langford A Mac Lab on Aggieland Saturday with a project for their ARCH 406 studio, taught by Terry Larsen.
“We were given a bunch of stock student footage from the past year or two and put it all together, added effects and timed it to music,” said Frye. The show, which he and Cook called “The Compelling Presentation,” lasted 1:52 seconds on a loop. It was projected on a series of Styrofoam rectangles hanging at various heights and depths. The projection on the translucent medium was visible from both sides.
Their objective was to draw the attention of passersby and make them want to watch it more than one time, and they did plenty of that, with Aggieland Saturday tours going on in the building.
“We had a lot of compliments,” said Frye.
