At the occasion of a fundraising campaign organized by the University of Cambridge in King’s College Chapel on 17th October 2015, Artichoke invited the artist Miguel Chevalier to create a series of immersive projections to accompany the speeches of renowned professors and alumni including Sir Ian McKellen, Professor Chistopher Dobson, Professor Carol Brayne and Sir David Attenborough, and concluded by an unannounced appearance by the world-famous physicist Stephen Hawking, known for his work on black holes.
2015年10月17日,在剑桥大学国王学院礼拜堂(King‘s College Chapel)举办的筹款活动上,阿蒂约克邀请艺术家米格尔·雪佛利埃(Miguel Chevalier)制作一系列沉浸式的预测,伴随着著名教授和校友的演讲,其中包括伊恩·麦凯伦爵士(Sir Ian McKellen)、奇斯托赫尔·多布森(Chitopher Dobson)教授、卡罗尔·布雷恩(Carol Brayne)教授和戴维·阿滕伯勒爵士(Sir David Attenborough),世界著名物理学家斯蒂芬·霍金(Stephen
This was the first time that the University of Cambridge had invited an artist to make a work of art in the Chapel. For the event, Miguel Chevalier imagines a number of different graphic universes, which are generated in real time and use their own “digital” language to illustrate and interpret a wide variety of subjects including Academic Excellence, Health, Africa, Biology, Neurosciences, Physics, Biotechnologies…
这是剑桥大学第一次邀请艺术家到教堂制作艺术品。在这次活动中,米格尔?雪佛利耶想象了许多不同的图形宇宙,它们是实时生成的,并使用自己的“数字”语言来说明和解释各种各样的学科,包括学术卓越、健康、非洲、生物学、神经科学、物理学、生物技术…。
We discover colourful living universe constantly renewed. Everything floats, branches out, appears and disappears, always turning into something else. Colored lines of light sketch out mental landscapes before our very eyes.
我们发现生机勃勃的宇宙不断更新。所有的东西都漂浮,分支出来,出现和消失,总是变成别的东西。彩色的光线在我们眼前勾勒出心灵的风景。
To illustrate Stephen Hawking’s research about black holes, Miguel Chevalier imagines an immersive environment made up of thousands of constellations that plunge the guests into the mystery of the universe. In the same spirit, each of the projections entices the audience into a magical and poetic atmosphere where science meets spirituality.
为了说明史蒂芬·霍金对黑洞的研究,米格尔·雪佛勒设想了一个由数千个星座组成的沉浸环境,这些星座将客人带入宇宙的神秘之中。在同样的精神中,每一种投射都会吸引观众进入一种神奇而富有诗意的氛围,科学与灵性相遇。
The site-specific installation highlights the architecture of the 16th century Chapel through light and highlights the high technicality of the cathedral’s fan vaults, one of the finest examples of late Perpendicular Gothic English architecture. The soft light and the wealth of colours from the digital installation is in resonance also with the light from the stained glass windows. The installation gives the building life before our eyes, creating an unprecedented visual experience.
具体地点的安装强调了16世纪教堂的建筑通过光和突出高技术的大教堂的风扇拱顶,一个最好的例子之一,晚期垂直哥特式英国建筑。数字装置的柔和光线和丰富的色彩也与彩色玻璃窗上的光线产生了共鸣。安装给我们眼前的建筑生活,创造了前所未有的视觉体验。
This digital installation is a celebration of the open-mindedness and the highness of research of Cambridge University.
这个数字装置是对剑桥大学开放的思想和研究的高度的庆祝。
