Bruce Ramus
RAMUS, Victoria, Australia
Bruce Ramus is a Light Artist, a Light Innovator, a Light Educator and an Artistic Director. He is a thought-leader and an innovative communicator that brings a lightness to all he experiences.
As the Founder and Director of RAMUS, Canadian-born Bruce Ramus has been creating immersive light experiences for decades. Starting as a designer and director of grand-scale, theatrical light experiences in the entertainment realm (U2, David Bowie, R.E.M. etc.), Bruce now creates compelling, beautiful site-specific artworks that reflect the essence and natural rhythms of people.
Bruce creates concepts that combine long-term artistic vision with deep technical understanding. These artworks have begun to reshape our urban spaces, to de-materialise our cities, and define a new expression known as Media Architecture. He believes that Media Architecture is among the strongest movements in Urban Design in decades.
As a light artist, Bruce Ramus will share insights, methodologies and designs of Media Architecture designs and applications; what it is, how we design within this new paradigm, and what impact it’s having and will have on our cities. He will discuss lighting and video design, interactive and performative design, and how all of this contributes to a certain ‘x-factor in our work and the places we live.
