Arcade

From Crazy Hacks

Arcade is the name of the second light installation of Project Blinkenlights.

During the Nuit Blanche art festival in Paris the Tower T2 of the Bibliothèque nationale de France was transformed into a huge computer screen, measuring 20 x 26 windows (520 "pixels") or 3370 m². Apart from the higher "resolution", Arcade also featured up to eight shades of gray.

The installation existed from September 25th, 2002 to October 6th, 2002.
