Footsteps of Faith
Liverpool Community Spirit commissioned Draw & Code to unite all of the major Liverpool based faith institutions together into one app. The user can navigate through each of the world’s religions, finding local places of worship and tracing their history though the timeline feature. I was tasked with creating 3D models of Liverpool’s religious buildings, to be used in the augmented reality viewer on the app.
Slaves of Fashion
I worked on an AR app of a painting for Draw & Code‘s long time friends and internationally renowned artists The Singh Twins. It was a depiction of the Indigo trade throughout history, delicately hand painted in the traditional Indian miniature style, but with a mix of modern and historical culture. Alongside the twins and D&C’s interactive developer Tom Southworth, I helped to bring the many individual elements of the painting to life by animating them in Unity. They opened an exhibition at Liverpool’s Walker Art Gallery, where they showcased 20 new artworks about the history of Indian textiles entitled “Slaves of Fashion”.
Tech Demo
Hope Street in Liverpool was used for early virtual and augmented reality tech demo’s.
For the Liverpool Irish Festival, 92 Degrees Coffee opened a new exhibition of Belfast-based artist Leo Boyd‘s work, titled Prints of Things to Come. I was tasked to animate his piece The Birds, so visitors could watch it come to life!
