Augmented Sculpture by GROSSE8 & LICHTFRONT / Passagen 2010 from Lichtfront on Vimeo.

In a comment on their Vimeo page, Lichtfront explains how the light sculpture was created: "We did it with 4 projectors, placed around the object. The graphics were done in AfterEffects. We worked in a composition that was cutted into the 4 output movies at the end. Then we played the 4 videos on 2 computer, synchronised by a vvvv patch."

In other words, it was not animated. But I still can't completely understand how that wasn't some cool kick-ass piece of animation. My kids call it awesome. I call it a great dose of aesthetic-influence for the day.
