Projecting for Armistice

11.11 Armistice was a two night outdoor live visual projection performance commemorating Armistice Day. Projected onto the side of a local library, the work included WW100 commemoration content and original 2 and 3D animations. Kim Newall and Dr Maggie Buxton from AwhiWorld, a Whangarei based Creative Technology Production Company and Creative Northland collaborated to make the library come alive with images that commemorated the day in respectful and creative style.

Kim Newall created original animations that emerge from his drawing and animation practice. Maggie curated existing archival images from WW100 publicity images and silhouette-based video footage provided by Channel North. Additional images were provided from the collection of Whangarei RSA member Ian Reid.

The performance took place from 8 to 10.30pm Friday 9th and Saturday 10th November, 2018. For video snippets and more photos please AwhiWorld’s Facebook Page.
