RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager or their designee to execute Contract No.
C25192694 (Attachment A), with A3-Immersive, for the projection mapping production
services for the Code:ART Interactive Media Public Art Festival for a term of one year,
and a total amount not-to-exceed $275,692;

a. Increasing the Community Services Department Contract Services Appropriation
by $225,693; and
b. Decreasing the Ending Fund balance for the Public Art Fund by $225,693.
BACKGROUND
Code:ART is an interactive public art festival placing playful interactive temporary installations
throughout downtown activating downtown alleys, plazas, and spaces through art. The Public
Art Program began producing the Code:ART festival in 2017 and has seen growing audiences
and support for each presentation of the biannual three-evening event. By conservative
estimates, the 2023 Code:ART event drew over 13,000 people to downtown Palo Alto, and the
feedback staff received through surveys and from what the Commissioners gathered was
overwhelmingly positive, with 98% of those 243 people surveyed wanting to see more events
like this in Palo Alto, 73% of those surveyed visited a downtown business, indicating an
economic impact of $550,000 over the three nights (Attachment B).
After considerable research into similar art and technology festivals in the United States and
abroad, staff has seen the significant draw that immersive projection mapping artwork can
have on raising numbers of visitors and the resulting positive economic impact for their city. For
example, Napa, California hosts an annual Napa Lights festival with ten nights of large-scale
projections and reported an economic impact of $3.2M in 2023. Let’s Glow SF is a similar
initiative that takes place each winter. Originally launched in 2021, Let’s Glow SF has reported
continuously growing attendance and economic impact to local businesses. Year 2021 reported
40,000 visitors and $2.1M economic impact; Year 2022, the event was visited by 51,000 who
brought in $3.1M. Year 2023 the festival reported that 67,000 people attended and an
economic impact of $8 million (Attachment C).
ANALYSIS
The Public Art Program is moving forward with plans for the fourth Code:ART festival to take
place October 16-18, 2025. In order to have an even greater impact at the next Code:ART and
extend part of the festival experience over a longer period of time, staff is exploring bringing a
large-scale 3-D projection mapping installation to the façade of City Hall that would debut at
the Code:ART festival and remain on view each night for an extended period, commencing on
October 16 through October 25 the following weekend. Since the projection’s scale is expected
to be a draw for visitors, the installation will be in place for a total of nine nights, instead of
three nights which is the duration the other Code:ART installations are active. This is funded by
private development funds; the Public Art Commission approved the use of funds from the Art
in Public Spaces Capital Improvement Project (CIP) fund for five art installations and the use of
the private development funds to support the additional projection mapping artwork on August
28, 20241. Private development funds are in lieu fees collected from developers for larger
projects that meet certain criteria and choose not to commission art on their property. The
funds are pooled for the purpose of funding public art projects.
Projection mapping is a specialized technique and equipment that digitally maps an uneven
surface, such as the front façade of a building and allows artists with digital mapping skills to
create custom artwork that will display on that surface without distortion of the shapes
providing for an immersive visual experience. The specialized equipment and multiple high-
powered projectors allow for the artists to visually experiment with the building surface to
highlight or animate the architecture and occasionally make the wall seem to disappear or have
objects emerge from the surface. There are several qualified companies in the United States
with experience producing large scale outdoor 3-dimensional projections on a building similar
to Palo Alto City Hall.
Solicitation Process
CSD Staff released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for projection mapping companies with the
skills and experience to facilitate the projection mapping portion of Code:ART and help curate a
1 Minutes from the August 28, 2024 Public Art Commission Special Meeting; Agenda Item #1;
https://cityofpaloalto.primegov.com/Portal/viewer?id=0&type=7&uid=cfd7e98a-cca5-4e25-8fa2-d6af37a983be
selection of three artists qualified to create custom content to debut in Palo Alto. CSD Staff sent
the solicitation to four companies and received three applicants. Of the three companies that
submitted proposals, A-3 Immersive was the best qualified company to implement an
immersive video project to Code:ART. As a local company that had the most complete and
thorough application, they have a strong record of 3-D projection mapping artworks on
buildings of similar scale and complexity to City Hall, the portfolio of artists they work with is
diverse and strong, and their pricing was competitive. CSD Staff issued a Notice of Intent to
Award a contract to A-3 Immersive on October 22, 2024.

As part of their contract, A-3 Immersive will bring in and assemble all necessary equipment,
including four high powered projectors, processing servers and inclement weather housing,
support structures, lighting and sound equipment and labor, projectionists to run the show
each evening, crowd control barricades, commission three artists to create new projection
artworks for Code:ART, prepare the front windows of City Hall for the projections, and remove
everything upon the conclusion of the festival.
As a key partner in the expansion of Code:ART into large-scale projection, Panasonic has
offered to sponsor the use of two of the projectors and lenses for the event, saving an
estimated $13,110. Additionally, A-3 Immersive found several cost-saving opportunities
reducing the window covering budget and labor costs by an additional $10,330 to reduce their
estimate for the run of the projections.
FISCAL/RESOURCE IMPACT
Generally, Municipal Code Chapter 16.612 requires commercial development projects over
10,000 square feet to either incorporate public art into their project or pay the equivalent in-
lieu fee. The in-lieu funds are restricted for the commission of public art projects and art
experiences within Palo Alto and partially funds one Public Art staff position.3 In FY 2022 the
Council approved an ongoing allocation of $60,000 from the Public Art Fund ($10,000 for
professional services to verify the private development construction valuation amounts and
$50,000 for temporary projects such as Code:ART). This request is for an additional $225,693
one-time use to support the large-scale projections by three digital mapping artists on City Hall
for the 2025 event.
The Public Art Commission approved allocation of funds in an amount up to $300,000. Staff
worked with A-3 Immersive to reduce the overall cost and Panasonic is sponsoring the use of
two projectors resulting in further cost savings. If additional sponsors come forward for the
individual artworks, the cost will be further reduced.
There is adequate funding in the Public Art Fund to cover the costs associated with this request.
In addition to this project, a sub-committee of the Public Art Commission is exploring
permanent public art acquisitions that would be funded by the Public Art Fund. The sub-
committee will provide a report to the full Commission at their annual retreat in January 2025.
Staff anticipates the 2025 Code:ART festival to exceed the number of visitors from the previous
festivals, resulting in a significant amount of foot traffic in the University Avenue downtown
area. Since the projection mapping installation will be on display for nine consecutive nights, it
is expected to have a large draw through promotions and word-of-mouth resulting in an
economic benefit to downtown businesses.
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
During each Code:ART event, teams of volunteers and staff circulate through the crowds and
gather survey responses. Last year, 243 visitors took the survey. Additionally, the Public Art
Commissioners volunteer their time to lead tours, work the information table, assist artist
teams, and gather feedback through hundreds of conversations and interactions with the
public. The Commission and staff compile the feedback and input from the previous Code:ART
in order to plan the next one.

3 Uses of Public Art Fund are regulated by PAMC section 16.61.110.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA
regulation 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this
project will have a significant effect on the environment.

CONSULTANT shall be responsible for ensuring that current certificates evidencing the insurance are provided to CITY’s Chief Procurement Officer during the entire term
