My company, Strukt, realized this installation with the node-based programming language VVVV. We built this letter-universe to functioned as a soothing ambient visual but also created type-matrix pictures and fonts to feature the participants of “The design:project”, a competition hosted by Mercedes-Benz.

The real-time animation was screened on a 20 meter wide 3x-HD projection using only one computer to create the output signals. This system was later on also used to screen content during the award ceremony. For convenience we enabled OSC commands to control the letter-universe with the help of an iPod Touch.
