This work was created especially for this exhibition and is location-specific: it shows a 3D-printed model of the urban environment of „Galerie „Geste“ Paris. The video is based on a unique digital process in which Mohné, instead of photographing the real space, takes pictures directly in the Google Earth App, using virtual „camera drones”. These take numerous „photos“ from all sides of the selected location. Using computer based photogrammetry, a 3-dimensional, virtual, architectural model is rendered from these screenshots. This is then used for the final video-animation, modell and the Mozilla room. The 3D model, when viewed from above and because of its photographed and 3D-printed color, strikingly resembles the underlying Google Earth satellite photos and at first glance appears to be a kind of „material photo“ of the place itself.
