Game Art: Garnet Hertz' "Doom Reflection Wall" (2011-2012)

In Hertz' latest project - originally developed in 2011 and since implemented - "a data projector displays an image on a wall. Loud heavy metal music plays in the space. When an individual walks up to the wall, a mirrored avatar of the person is displayed on the screen using a character from the 1993 first person shooter video game "Doom" (id Software). Like an 8-bit mirroring of reality, the computer-drawn characters move in sync with people in front of the data projection." (Herz)

The project was developed by combining Kinect, Processing and Doom. Quite spectacular.
