Popular projection is a project which seeks to reconcile the two faces of a national cinema: one as the most glamorous face of the film industry, and the other as a medium through which the people can experience the national film culture. This project hopes to address this duality by creating a highly versatile, dynamic object which will change as the needs and uses placed upon it change. To compliment this, the form is inspired by the bending light generated by a simple super 8 projector, adding a dazzling skin of "light ribbons" that can change color at the blink of an eye. The hope of this project is to make the national cinema a multi-use experience for a multitude of different visitors.
