Projection Design Samples by Jennifer Akalina Petuch
Game On
Game On is a journey of a protagonist encountering a metaphorical glitch while playing her video games. She becomes entrapped and as a player she must traverse different worlds using her inner strength to complete each level facing her fears that represent life’s challenges. By combining elements of dancers, projections, creating a symbiotic relationship between the choreography and projections on the stage, this work will appeal to multi-generational audiences.

Propinquity
Propinquity is a piece inspired by the Holographic Universe Principle, which is based on the fact that the Event Horizon (outer edge of a Black Hole), collects all the information with which it comes in contact. That information becomes incredibly organized and creates a projected reality in the Black Hole. We call this reality our Universe, and in turn, our Universe is a holographic projection. However, since the human mind is capable of altering reality, this demonstrates that our minds and the Universe are linked as one and we have the capability to control our future.
