[CREATE] LGM immersion

[Yuval Levy]

Hi all,

I would like to share with you an initiative / contribution to LGM: 
<http://www.uwivi.com/>

We are putting together an exhibit of panoramic art, much of it produced 
using Hugin/Panotools and software from other projects represented at LGM.

These images would not have been possible without Open Source graphics 
software which has often taken the lead to introducing new, advanced 
functionalities, picked up by avantgarde artists before being copied and 
integrated into the proprietary tools to which many artists are still bound.

The exhibit will have two parts.

The one for which we are currently collecting user input are prints that 
we hope to display in the LGM venue as a token of gratitude to the 
developers who make the tools that make these images possible.

The second part will be a projection on a cylinder using Sébastien Roy's 
Lighttwist 
<http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/Multi-projector_immersive_displays:_the_LightTwist_project>

the details are being working out to deploy the system. We're like to 
have a live performance, one or two short videos and a slide show, all 
contributed by different artists using mostly Open Source software.

I hope you will find the time to let these artworks inspire you, as much 
as your technical achievement have inspired the artist that used your code.

Yuv
