For the re-launch of Microsoft’s Windows Live platform, Firstborn was approached by Emmy Award Winning studio Digital Kitchen and Wexley School for Girls to create a generative art exhibition to be projected onto a seven-story sphere located at New York’s South Street Seaport.Microsoft teamed up with Operation Smile and as part of the event there were numerous kiosks at the Seaport for visitors to get their smile captured and have it projected on the sphere. Using Processing, Firstborn was able to create particle generated art, which was projected on the sphere.

The images that were used in the installation were fed live from photobooths around the outside of the area. Patrons would see their own photographs used in the overall exhibition.

You can see a fantastic case-study on Firstborn’s website here.
