Sunbeam Poem Projector
Amazing idea. Can’t remember how i found this now, but check out the timelapse video, it’s a fantastic. The type is formed ( as you can see ) through a complex array of perforations aligned with the passing of the sun. The poem takes about 8hrs to sweep through the full text. Based around the solar calendar, winter and summer display different poems. Extremely clever. Read the detailed description, see development sketches and don’t miss the ingenious video of initial experiments creating type from light and pin holes. Sculpture / Installation Design by Jiyeon Song.

Why would someone waste their time photoshopping that? Why can’t morons, such as yourself, simply accept something cool instead of saying everything is photoshopped?
Said, on April 18th, 2008 at 5:30 am :
Why do poeple always assume something is photoshopped..sillygoose.

Peter’s got something up his bumhole, agreed?

Peter is photoshopped.
Said, on April 18th, 2008 at 2:57 pm :
why don t you people understand that when somebody says “photoshopped”, he just means it s something really really well done… don t be so… premier degre.
Btw, this is soooo photoshopped

maybe he just means it was contrast adjusted and color corrected…
or maybe he’s just a bot that posts the word photoshopped on every forum…
regardless of the doubting thomas, this is a pretty cool artwork.
Said, on April 18th, 2008 at 10:55 pm :
I believe Peter was making a joke, people.
Said, on April 18th, 2008 at 11:16 pm :
Have you noticed that on pretty much everything nowadays at least 1 person will always say something is shopp’ed.
You guys need to learn before posting to the interwebs. Your just clogging up the tubes.
Said, on April 19th, 2008 at 1:33 am :
You can’t use Photoshop on videos, numb nuts.
If you’re going to claim something as fake, at least have the decency to know what you’re alleging.
Said, on April 19th, 2008 at 2:01 am :
I think i would photoshop something a little more intricate than that…
That is to simple, yet brilliant, to need photoshopping. Some people need to be a little more open minded (peter) cough cough.
I love it.

Said, on April 19th, 2008 at 3:59 pm :
Yeah Dylan, but I think it was photoshopped up there.
Said, on April 19th, 2008 at 4:32 pm :
Seriously, it must be a new fad. I’m not joking, I’ve seen from at least 4 different sites a person named peter just say “photoshopped”, kind of makes me wonder if there’s people sick of wild photoshopping accusations that they decide to be sarcastic peters… :/

Stop picking on Peter.
Said, on April 20th, 2008 at 1:21 am :
No more discussion of Peter.
This work of art truly is brilliant. It’s things like this that make me feel like I’ll never do anything truly creative in my life.
Said, on April 20th, 2008 at 10:09 pm :
Yeah, I’m sure that Peter was totally sincere about it being photoshopped. No joke there, no sir. Morons.
Said, on April 21st, 2008 at 6:38 pm :
most of these comments are also photoshopped.
Said, on April 22nd, 2008 at 5:58 pm :
That’s awsome!
Said, on April 22nd, 2008 at 10:54 pm :
Gimped!
Said, on April 22nd, 2008 at 11:05 pm :
I think that this is great, I wish I could come up with something brilliant like that! :)
Said, on April 23rd, 2008 at 8:44 am :
I imagine that Peter is fully aware that it is not Photoshopped and is in fact making a joke about how people always say that things are Photoshopped. The humor lies in the juxtaposition between… oh forget it. LOL IT’S NOT PHOTOSHOPPED YOU IDIOT LOL
Said, on April 23rd, 2008 at 9:37 am :
I poo poo on pee peter he’s a moron moron moron and I think he will never read this useless comment. cheers :o)
Said, on April 23rd, 2008 at 12:39 pm :
One of those things where you wish you’d thought of it first, no?
Said, on April 23rd, 2008 at 2:18 pm :
I think Peter may be photoshopped.
Said, on April 23rd, 2008 at 6:48 pm :
Agreed. Peter, quit being such a turd.

Couldn’t get the edu site to load. But the concept is truly amazing in getting the poem to project through sunlight. I would assume this is similar to those 3D holograms that give you a different view based on which way it was viewed.
However, the sunlight poem project is probably at a tenth level thinking to get all the angles properly aligned.
Said, on April 28th, 2008 at 6:24 pm :
Honestly guys, it probably *is* photoshopped. What you all seem to be forgetting is that MOST things are photoshopped to some degree these days. Photoshop was designed to allow you to tweak photos and work that you do to make it as good as it can be. Yeah, the photo has probably been altered, but only so you can see the details better. It’s not “fake”, though — not by any means.

Also, photoshopped.
I can tell by the pixels, and by having seen a few in my time.
