[Frameworks] Projecting for Installation so that people don't walk in front

I've seen it done.. There are lenses that are curved so much that the
projector can be mounted on the ceiling, just a few feet away from the
wall, and pointing sharply down and it will still project a square image.
Those are probably pretty expensive.  If you're using the regular lens on
the projector, just position it as far away from the wall as you can - it
will work with keystoning and the proper angle.

5 to 7 hours seems fairly normal for videos that are on all day on a loop
in a gallery.  Multiply that by 30 days for the show and that's how it
usually works.
