One day, something extraordinary happened: during one of these sessions, Prince\u2019s image appeared on camera not as a flat projection on the wall, but as a translucent overlay\u2014a spectral layer superimposed directly over my own form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That experience sparked an idea: what if we could use projection and steam as a medium for spirit imagery?

I imagined a spherical chamber filled with mist, shaped by multiple projectors to capture fleeting forms. I never built it\u2014but the idea stayed with me, lingering in the back of my mind like an unfinished sketch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-premium-content-container wp-block-premium-content-container\">\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-premium-content-logged-out-view entry-content\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Subscribe to get access<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more of this content when you subscribe today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-premium-content-buttons wp-block-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-recurring-payments wp-block-button\"><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-button wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" data-id-attr=\"recurring-payments-11331\" id=\"recurring-payments-11331\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.wordpress.com\/memberships\/?blog=251882242&amp;plan=11331+10992+11330+10991&amp;lang=en&amp;pid=22517&amp;redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.andreamaicreative.com%2Farchive%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F22517\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wp-class--is-submitting=\"state.isSubmitting\" data-wp-bind--aria-disabled=\"state.isAriaDisabled\">Subscribe<span class=\"spinner\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"is-visually-hidden\">Submitting form<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-premium-content-login-button wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.wordpress.com\/memberships\/jwt\/?site_id=251882242&#038;redirect_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.andreamaicreative.com%2Farchive%2Fwp-json%2Fjetpack%2Fv4%2Fsubscribers%2Fauth%3Fredirect_url%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fandreamaicreative.com%2Farchive%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F22517\">Log in<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For years, I\u2019ve followed the pioneering work of Sonia Rinaldi.
