Nuit Blanche: Starscape

Missed Starscape at Nuit Blanche last fall?

With the Nuit Blanche 2018 application deadline approaching, we thought we’d share a Waterloo Architecture project from last year. F_RMlab showcased Starscape through the Independent Project program.

In conjunction with last year’s theme of ‘many possible futures’ and Canada’s 150, the Starscape installation featured an undulating fabric canopy catching computationally-generated moving projections of stars and the northern Canadian night sky. This was contrasted against the unfortunate reality of Toronto’s current blank and light polluted night sky.

If you’re interested in sharing an Independent Project this year, apply to the City of Toronto by February 5.
