This is a project I have been developing where I try to build ephemeral platforms for projections.

You can see more about the project in my webpage:

Step 1: Transparent Structure to Contain the Water

You have to find a transparent structure to fill with water. It can be a ball or an aquarium for example.

Step 2: Add Milk to the Water

Now you have to add a little bit of milk to the water. The milk makes the water dirty and then you can project.

Step 3: Prepare Your Digital Animations

the animations should be very contrasted and with strong colors. Photographic images doesn't work, only simples traces and strong colors.

Step 4: Projecting Your Animations With a Projector

You are going to see the image inside the water. It need to have strong and contrasted images.
Place your projector behind it and it will work!
