プロジェクト変遷：かがやき星団｜Project History: Kagayaki Cluster

電波反射器を一箇所に集中配置

《かがやき星団》の制作では大小22基の電波反射器をひとつの広場に集中配置することで、星団をモチーフとした新たな表現を試みた。参加者向けのレクチャーとワークショップの機会には、アルミ蒸着シートの表面にペンで絵を描くワークショップを開催し、広場では現地撮影時刻前の電波反射器配置の様子をドローンによって上空から記録するなど、宇宙から届く電波や人工衛星への興味関心が高まるアクションを本活動に組み込もうとした時期であった。

Concentrated setup of corner reflectors

For Kagayaki Cluster, 22 sets of corner reflectors of varying sizes were set up within close range in one park, to produce a new expression that was based on the motif of a star cluster. A lecture and a workshop were also held for participants. In the workshop, the participants drew pictures on the surface of aluminum-metalized film with a pen, while in the park, the setup of the corner reflectors was recorded from above using a drone prior to the actual imaging. This was a period when we were experimenting with incorporating such activities that enhanced interest in the radio waves that reach the ground from space, and in the artificial satellites.
