Projection Mapping Animation in openFrameworks


boxedin is an experiment in storytelling in three dimensions.

Using projection mapping, I wanted to cover three surfaces and tell a story where a beat up cardboard box serves as a canvas for a story about finding solace in confined spaces.


The story is about a bird who wakes the protagonist up from slumber, and follows him around singing, much to his annoyance.

The protagonist chases the bird away, through various windows.



Eventually the bird leads the protagonist to pay attention to the world outside the windows, and both are at peace.

Most of this was coded in a hotel room during my quarantine after my flight from NYC. Using what I had on hand (a box that could be folded, and a small projector), I wanted to find some peace through coding this project. This was very much the Blue Bird of External Focus.

Created in openFrameworks. Created SVGs myself and animated in entirely in code.
