Karolina’s Wild Animals

Karolina Sobecka makes night projections of wild animals from moving cars. The coolest thing about the project is that the movements of the animals are programmed to match the speed of the car that is projecting it.

She writes… “as the car moves, the animal runs along it speeding up and slowing down with the car, as the car stops, the animal stops also. The framerate of the movie corresponds to the speed of the wheel rotation, picked up by a sensor. If the presence of a moving object (such as another car or pedestrian) is detected with proximity sensors, its animal “avatar” appears in the projection.
