Igor brought us on for a project that sounded pretty wild: massive metal hoops, elastic fabric, and a live video distortion setup that skewed visitors’ bodies and projected them back in real time.

Eight hoops were grounded, eight suspended from the fortress walls by steel rope. Elastic fabric was stretched across them, forming glowing volumes lit from beneath. Above the wall, we installed a row of fabric sails using the same materials, catching wind just enough to move but not take off 🤞. We also attached smaller hoop pieces to lamp posts. cute. help.

No one knew if the fabric would hold the stretch. It held.

Rock climbers rigged the suspension ropes. Watching them hang there — pure stress. Also, it was insanely hot! We melted under shade tents between builds.

Left the site to meet some friends. Forgot my crew pass. Tried to get back in through the main entrance, but forgot there was weed in my wallet.

Security found it.

Lost half my fee to a security fine.
