To display animations on the FIESP building's media facade (Sao Paulo, Brazil) is truly a unique experience for everyone involved (see Crossroads project): for city dwellers it serves as a 'Super Sign' that helps to identify the location of FILE Media Arts Festival, for media artists it becomes a blank canvas in the enormous size of a skryscraper. As inherent part of the FILE Media Arts Festival and of the exhibition itself the 'Augmented Architecture Installation' gives additional access to created artworks. A small scale architectural model of the FIESP building was augmented through projection throughout the FILE Festival from July until September 2018. As such the installation serves as a medium to give visitors access to an archive of former created animations of past festivals, actual curated works, and can serve as a test-bed for future developments.
