Lights, Camera, Egypt! Ancient Art Meets Digital Tech at The Met
An illuminating display from their media lab.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s media lab team and Egyptian art specialists weren’t out playing in the snow in nearby Central Park after the storm along with other New Yorkers. Instead they were inside putting the finishing touches on a new digital light display in their famed Temple of Dendur space.
The experimental projection, ‘Color the Temple: Scene 1’, shows how a limited portion of the 2,000 year-old temple walls may have originally appeared before the colors faded.
