Messin’ with Tourists.

The winners of the 2008 Prix Ars Electronica - International Competition of Cyberarts have been announced.  Two of the winners really stuck out to me.

Julius von Bismarck’s Fulgurator that can project an image into a photograph with out the photographer’s knowledge.  It is almost an anti-persistence of vision device.  Instead it displays an image so fast the eye does not pick it up but it times the display to coincide with the camera’s flash.

Nuage Vert came up with a project that can turn a cloud into a canvas that can be painted on with lasers.
