On the occasion of Amor, a special evening of music and entertainment hosted at Temakinho in Bologna, we developed a video mapping installation designed to transform the venue’s apse into an immersive digital environment.

Set within a striking architectural space that was once a church and is now a restaurant, the installation brought a tropical-inspired visual universe to life. Leaves, flowers and organic forms intertwined with the architecture, enveloping its surfaces in luminous, colourful compositions that continuously evolved throughout the event. A visual language conceived to interact with the character of the venue and complement the energy of the night.

The project combines generative artificial intelligence, interaction design and video mapping in a visual system designed to evolve in real time. Using TouchDesigner, we developed an AI-powered generative workflow based on StreamDiffusion, capable of creating and transforming botanical-inspired imagery throughout the event. Resolume Arena was used to manage the video mapping and projection, adapting the visuals to the architectural forms and surfaces of the space.

Throughout the evening, the animations moved in sync with the atmosphere of the DJ sets, transforming the apse into a dynamic visual scenography. Light, colour and digital nature came together to create an immersive and evocative atmosphere, enhancing the audience’s experience. The result is an installation in which technology becomes an expressive tool for reinterpreting architecture and enriching the experience of a space, bringing together digital art, architecture and entertainment within a constantly evolving visual environment.
