Our team designed projection visuals for the Chinese Music Talking to the Sky (Guo Yue Wen Tian in Chinese) Concert, a 1 hour long real-time audio-visual mapping performance. It took place at the world's largest planetarium, Shanghai Astronomy Museum. The visuals accompanied Chinese zhongruan virtuoso Feng Mantian and his band, and together with the structure of the planetarium, creative and technological attributes of projection mapping were combined to create a spectacular experience under the stars.
