What's On
These phenomenal audiovisual tricycles lovingly called “Suaveciclos” are used to project original animations on almost any nearby public surface.The São Paulo-based artists Marotta & Soloaga pack these hefty trikes to the gills with all manner of batteries, laptops, speakers, and high-powered projectors so they can roll through the night with crowds in tow as their animations spring to life against the urban backdrop. Using the onboard computers they are able to manipulate the videos in real-time to play certain animations tailored to different environments, creating unpredictable moments between space, audience, and art.
