Anthony Head, Creative Director of the Illuminate Bath festival and Senior Lecturer at Bath Spa University, created a brand new artwork for Bath Digital Festival 2013.

The Digitrope was an interactive, participatory linear zoetrope that was projected on the Roman Baths in Stall Street – members of the public were invited to be teleported into the Digitrope by standing in front of the camera and performing for a few seconds before watching a 20 metre wide projection showing their time-delayed image along the Digitrope’s nine 2 metre high windows. Just like watching a 19th Century zoetrope, but with a 21st century digital twist!
