Artist Statement:
Phenakistoscape adopts the idea of intertextuality in movies, creating a montage with running scenes and camera movements, be they pan shots or tilt shots or zoom shots or track shots. The camera movements of the movie clips take control of a custom-made robotic video projector, specially constructed for the project. The robotic projector pans left when there is a pan-toright shot, and tilts up when there is a title-down shot. Apart from the pan and tilt action, the robotic projector walks around the container space, which facilities the zoom shots of the moving images. Ultrasonic sensors are placed around it to sense obstacles, including viewers.
