Last night, Isla Vista First Fridays (a fusion of local art and music we throw every month in the Isla Vista Recreation & Park District's Perfect Park) featured a light show by Crunchy Foam. They used a technique called "projection mapping" to align imagery on the complex surfaces of the Isla Vista Clinic building facade. (Notice how each column is animated separately!)

The work is a union of the skills of two recent UCSB graduates. Tai Rodrig, who was a Computer Science student at the College of Creative Studies, uses his skills to develop the software used to control the projection. Udo Gyene, who was a Math/Physics double-major, designs the equations used to generate the complex visual patterns they feature in their projections.
