The future of protest involves light, holograms and augmented reality
With the explosion of technologies that allow us to augment our physical environments, the question of “permission” is increasingly crucial. Is it needed to project light, holograms and images onto people’s real world property? Sure, scrawling a message in spray paint on the front of the building would clearly be illegal, but what of light?
The biggest challenge for these protest innovators is that they can only conduct their campaigns at night, because it needs to be dark for their technology to work. And their messages could be neutralized if someone fought fire with fire, or in this case, light with light. If you were to simply blast the area being projected on with more light, it could erase the projection.
