Info
Luminous Interactive digital art platform was the brainchild of Lend Lease Group in collaboration with Ramus Illumination, and is billed, according to the Wall Street Journal, as 'the world's biggest interactive permanent light display'. It was officially opened in the Darling Quarter Precinct in Sydney Central Business District (CBD) on 18 May 2012.
Luminous at Darling Quarter is a permanent platform solely for illuminated digital 'art' – both animated and static. The 'canvas' extends over four levels of two campus-style buildings, covering 557 windows in total, and presents a digital façade spanning a distance of 150 metres. The artistic and design direction was set by international light artist Bruce Ramus, with Ramus studio responsible for design management and production of the work. Fixtures were manufactured by Australian architectural lighting specialists Klik Systems using advanced LED systems.
