The #Occupy “Bat Signal” that was projected onto the Verizon building in New York City on November 17th has garnered a lot of interest from other occupations. Many have expressed an interest in wanting to project the same image, or images, on relevant locations in their own cities and towns. The “Bat Signal” team has collected all the source and project files and posted them here, along with a handy “how-to” guide for guerilla projections. Here’s what’s available:
1- A jpeg of the “bat signal” by itself.
2- Full resolution .mov files of the text elements that were used on November 17th.
3- One low-resolution .mov file of all the text that was projected on November 17th.
4- A set of still images of each line of text, that you can manipulate as you wish.
5- Tips and Instructions for guerilla projections.
