On Deep Space’s 16×9-meter display, the founder of the 360cities.net online collection of panoramic photography will present shots of London, Ljubljana, Prague and Tokyo, and offer interesting insights into how he works.
Jeffrey Martin
Jeffrey Martin was born in Chicago and grew up in Germany, Great Britain and the USA. He and his family now live in Prague. Martin took his first panoramic photographs in 2000 for the prague360.com website. He and his brother David quickly decided to take 360° shots of other cities too. In addition to his passion for panoramas, the founder of 360Cities.com is also interested in time-lapse video and experimental aspects of photography.
Deep Space LIVE
The Ars Electronica Center is now hosting a Deep Space LIVE event every Thursday (except holidays) at 8 PM. Each presentation will feature ultra-high-definition imagery in 16×9-meter format and will be accompanied by expert commentary, entertaining stand-up repartee, and musical improvisation. Whether great works from the history of art, space travel, journeys of discovery in the Nanoworld, or a live concert is what you’ve come to behold, Deep Space LIVE stands for enlightening entertainment amidst breathtaking worlds of imagery. Admission is €2. Holders of a valid Museum ticket are admitted free of charge.
