디스트릭트의 미디어아티스트 유닛 '에이스트릭트'는 2021년 7월 뉴욕 타임스스퀘어에서 공공미술 작품 'Whale #2'(2021)를 선보였습니다.
'Whale #2'는 타임스스퀘어 중심에 위치한 광장(Pedestrian Plaza)을 밝히는 약 1400㎡ 크기의 전광판 전체를 입체적 공간으로 바꿔, 파도의 움직임에 따라 역동적으로 춤추는 고래의 형상을 초현실적으로 연출한 작품입니다.
디스트릭트는 다양한 퍼블릭 미디어에 활용될 수 있는 감각적인 아트 콘텐츠를 지속적으로 선보일 예정입니다.

파도와 고래가 너무 리얼해서 속이다 시원한느낌!! 디자이너분 레알 금손이다...👍

[@joeman123964]

i just love how we have the technology to fool our eyes to think it's actually there in our 3D space. i could imagine a MASSIVE screen in a special park where we can safely interact with 5k animals close. the feeling would be incredible while at the same time removing the need to keep animals just for show and NOT care. zoos do help animals in need, but i assume (experts correct me if i am wrong please) 80%-90% animals didn't NEED to stay there. they could've been cured then released. we now breed them and domesticate them, but maybe we can change that
