Creating mixed-reality installations by combining 3D scanning and projection mapping

Used a Faro 3D scanner with Dara from Jahan to scan in a simple real-world polyhedron, converted it to an editable mesh using MeshLab and 3DMax, and used it as a base for a scary projection mapped face!

Did a demo/workshop of this project for the 2017 LivePerformers Meeting in Amsterdam.  with Dara Bonakdar.
