“Projected Memories”
You can now surround your rooms with "projected memories,” states an English writer. Studies of your favourite " far-from- the-maddiug-crowd’ ’ resort, your country garden, friends, film stars, or heroes of real life —all can be emprinted upon your drawingroom walls! It is all done by a sort of "magic-lantern” projection, but fixed and made photographically permanent. Eirst you clear the wall and have it measured. A scene, faces, figures—or anything that is photogenic—is chosen to fit the space, and is snapped on a film—then the genius of the photomural steps in. It does not matter if the wall is not flat as the projected image laps conveniently over relief or mouldings or little inequalities of surface. So long as the surface is solid and durable it can be treated, and brick, plaster, marble, cement, wood, or just ordinary canvas can be worked over.
