If you looked at a video, please do the following:

Photographer Tarek Mawad and animator Friedrich van Schoor. They make a lot of light art.
c.     If there is a story about the video on the website, paraphrase it in 2-3 sentences.
3D projections were normally used to create stunning visuals on flat surfaces. Photographer Mawad and animator Schoor applied the concept of 3D projection onto nature, an environment with texture and uneven surfaces, to see if the same stunning visuals would work (or what would happen). 
d.     What did you learn new?
A projector has more purposes than showing a teacher's computer screen on a wall.
