When thinking about computational art, the first project that comes to mind is the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit that is travelling around the world. It is a digital exhibit comprised of video and light that brings the work of Van Gogh to life.
The exhibit was created by Massimiliano Siccardi, a video artist. The creative team also consists of animators, graphic designers, and producers. It has been showing since 2008, with many evolutions and upgrades throughout the years. It is hard to find information on how the show was programmed, but I assume it took a lot of different programs and media to create since it involves video, photography, sound, lighting, virtual reality, and animation. Different rooms of the exhibit even have different smells.
So far, the exhibit continues to travel. There are also rumors that Massimiliano Siccardi is developing a similar exhibit inspired by Monet.
