Subject: ODG: Is projecting a message onto the side of another's building a trespass?

Dear Colleagues:

A poster on the American Torts Prof listserve asked the question of
whether projecting a message onto the side of another's building is a
trespass (or nuisance). Apparently this is becoming a popular protest
technique in the US. Does anyone know of any Commonwealth authority
dealing with this issue? I can think of nuisances case where the
reflecting or throwing of light has been at issue but nothing directly
on point.

Sincerely,
