The Building Ornamentation Toolkit (BOT) is a series of software applications that I am developing as part of my research with Minneapolis Art on Wheels. These tools enable artists to project dynamic 3D geometry onto building facades. The first application in the series, Shelves, projects 3D forms and has a variety of animation capabilities. Shelves is currently in the testing phase and will be released free and open source as part of the Minneapolis Art on Wheels suite of technologies.
Other applications built on this platform are currently in the development phase and include tools for producing algorithmic facade decoration, facade-scale interactive games, and more.
