Using methods of public intervention and video installation, "Storming Times Square" was born from a desire to have viewers project themselves, literally and metaphorically, onto their immediate environments. In July 2014, visitors to Times Square were filmed crawling horizontally on a green screen. In September 2014, the resulting film was projected vertically on the buildings of Times Square, giving the illusion that the participants were scaling the buildings. This project was a first in the history of Midnight Moment to use a live-action performance to create an artwork for the screens. In addition his work in video and photography, Daniel Canogar has also created numerous public art pieces.
