Stunning: Explore the temples of Angkor from your bed

May 19, 2014 by Andrew Leave a Comment

I’d love to see the temples at Angkor and especially Angkor Wat. I doubt I’ll ever get the chance in real life.

Google might make it possible for me to virtually tour the temples though. This clever experience from the search engine gives you a ground level walkthrough of the incredible buildings.

The best way to experience Google’s streetview and map tour is not to be afraid. Click, scroll and poke around. You can’t break it but you might turn up some incredible sights.

If you could send Google’s streetview and virtual tour teams to any location on Earth where would you send them?

Gods and spirits projected onto trees

The Cambodian Trees project uses digital projection to bring deities and spirits from Cambodian culture to life as an overlay on urban trees.

The projected spirits are the work of the French artist Clement Briend. He notes;

It’s a beautiful surprise when the projected spirits awaken and reveal themselves at night as though they are made of the towering trees themselves. The photographic light installations echo the spirituality of the few sprouts of nature in the predominantly urban landscapes. It is a visual imagining of the divine figures that inhabit the world, as seen through an environmentally aware spiritual eye.

What do you think of the project?

Is this art or is anything digital less than impressive? Could such technology have any impact on the presentation or respect these ancient spirits have in Cambodian culture?
