"The Evolution of Fire"

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Firefly Vaporizer is proud to announce the launch of our new artist series, "Fueled by Firefly". In this series we will be collaborating with a wide range of artists and performers on projects exploring and celebrating the intersection of art, technology and culture.

Our opening event on June 4th will be the world premiere of "The Evolution of Fire", our first artist collaboration with media artists Eric Freeman and Toshi Anders Hoo.

"The Evolution of Fire" is an animated short that explores the theme of human's long and evolving relationship with fire, from ancient ritual to modern technologies.

*** Be sure to arrive by 8 PM for a live presentation from the artists including interactive light painting demonstrations. A lucky few will go home with a custom light painted portrait, and there will be a give aways of limited edition poster prints, and, a Firefly vaporizer!

More about the art:
Freeman and Hoo have developed an innovative "motion light painting" technique using long exposure, stop-motion photography to create animations with a uniquely organic feel. Using custom fiber optic brushes they paint onto each frame using long exposures (up to 12 seconds) with a digital camera system. The final video is made up of over 900 hand painted frames. (!!!)

A gallery of high resolution prints of selected frames from the video will provide guests with a detailed view into the hand painted frames. Live music will be provided by multi-instrumentalist, Daniel Berkman.

Don't miss this interactive night of art, music, and inspiration. It is FREE and open to those who rsvp here or at [email protected]. We look forward to seeing you!!
