Redraw, reword, or even animate, in time and space, a place, an area or a volume via projections of light and other tools, that’s what mapping can offer. Which technologies are used by artists working with mapping? How do they work with the light – and often sound – decor of the subjects they have chosen?
Animé par Joanie Lemercier (AntiVJ/FR).

The Tagtool community is taking over the space of La Fonderie for three days of workshops, jam sessions, performances and celebration. Come and find out about projection painting, get your hands dirty at one of the workshops, or simply enjoy the show. We made sure to invite an excellent line-up of musicians, so the ears won’t be jealous of the eyes. Tagtoolistas of all skill levels are welcome to bring their homebrew instruments and take part in the jam sessions. For this special occasion, OMA International is proud to introduce a new multiplayer Tagtool software for iPad. The designers and developers will be there to present their take on the future of projection painting.
Dieter Puntigam and friends will transform part of the space of La Fonderie into a three-dimensional sculpture as a canvas for Tagtool sessions. Cell City installation will be present throughout the workshop.

No experience is necessary and all parts will be provided (except soldering irons).
