# Kaleidoscopic Film Projections The Hypnotizing Daniel Canogar 'Sikka Magnum' Installation By Tia Clarke | Published 2013-02-15 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daniel-canogar References: [thecreatorsproject](http://www.thecreatorsproject.com/en-uk/blog/old-movies-projected-onto-hundreds-of-dvds-create-beautiful-audio-visual-mosaic) & [danielcanogar](http://www.danielcanogar.com/) This Daniel Canogar audio visual installation, names 'Sikka Magnum' projects 360 old DVD's with images of classic films which have been remixed. The result is a spectacular kaleidoscope of colors and images. The artist has a fascination with using old materials in his art works. The juxtaposition of these two mediums is an interesting one and makes the viewer ponder the speed at which technology is consumed and regarded obsolete in the modern day and our love affair with the cutting edge. Aesthetically, the DVDs create an interesting surface to project on as they twinkle and shimmer individually. The artist says his latest works, "Through my work I try to bring dead materials back to life, reveal their secrets, revive the collective memory they contain to construct an accurate portrait of a society and an age." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 40% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Audio Visual Installations:** Explore the use of audio visual installations to create captivating and immersive experiences. - **Remixing Old Materials:** Discover the trend of repurposing old materials to create unique and thought-provoking art pieces. - **Reviving Collective Memory:** Uncover the movement of using art to bring forgotten memories and stories back to life. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Embrace disruptive innovation opportunities in the art and design industry by experimenting with unconventional mediums and techniques. - **Technology:** Explore how technology can be used to transform outdated materials or formats into engaging and visually stunning experiences. - **Entertainment:** Leverage the power of immersive audio visual installations to enhance entertainment experiences and create lasting memories for audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Immersive Digital Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-reel-store.md) - [Mesmerizing Sand Pattern Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crystal-sandsara.md) - [CD-Comprised Towering Art Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stratagems.md) - [Thought-Provoking Interactive Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antibodies-installation.md) - [Digital Audio-Visual Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audiovisual-exhibition.md) - [Stacked Stone Camera Projectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-nostalgia-of-now.md) - [Analog Nostalgia Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-basics-ii.md) - [Fluid Function Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optical-flow.md)
