Ｆinal Project Proposal - LET'S EAT!

Real world
In these 2 months at ITP, I found that the moment which can gather most people together is the Friday evening food time. However, within limited budget, there is always a situation of not enough food. So, I decide to make a semi-virtue food table in the reception area where they can stay at the entrance, eat and look at the work.
I will put a table with white fake food. By projecting photorealistic textures, the fake food will look “real”. I hope I can put some real eatable food around so that people can take some and it looks like we are serving a lot of food to the visitors. It will be put in the entrance of the floor.
Inspired by the Niemark installation, I found that projected objects are always being ignored in the space. Usually, audience will even ignore the existence of the physical screen or projected surface. In my work, I want to display the real and virtue world in one setting, By putting in real objects with photorealistic projections, it combines the real and semi-virtue world.
Resource available:
3D printing in the Advance media Studio (their material is non reflective)
Further development:
At first, I want to make a semi virtue rotating sushi table (because I miss those sushi shop so much……) Since those sushi shops are always in long queues, I think it will be a good idea to make a virtue table projecting what’s new in the shop so people can think about it during the tedious lining up period. Further information of the ingredients of different sushi can be added or even used for take out order.
