Body Movies, a large-scale installation created by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, is running outside Te Papa every evening during the International Festival of the Arts from 9pm to 1am.
An enormous performance toy for passers-by, it combines their huge shadows with projected photographs of people taken on the streets of New Zealand and the world.
The user-generated artwork proved popular on Thursday night, causing much entertainment at the time Scoop popped down for a look.
