The LIGHTBOX project is an environment created using a combination of camera obscura, and digital technology. By standing inside LIGHTBOX a person will be surrounded by images of the Aurora Australis taken from data, video and photographs as it is right now at Scott Base in Antarctica.
In partnership with NIWA (the New Zealand Government’s National Institute of Water and Atmospheric research) LIGHTBOX’s Visual and scientific data will be streamed from the New Zealand Government’s ‘AntarcticaNZ’ Scott Base on Ross Island. The activity of the Aurora Austarls at Scott Base will relayed to the Science Gallery at Trinity College and the projections will respond in real time to changing Aurora conditions in the Antarctic. As well as imagery created by Anthony Powell who is a photographer and Satellite Communications Technician working in Antarctica at McMurdo Station
