EVER SEEN SUCH RAPID CHANGE?
EVER SEEN SUCH RAPID CHANGE?
In forty years, we’ve gone from outdoor static stages to rotating monoliths, from cranking up a lighting tower to floating video constructs above the audience.
Artists are becoming more often flying performers, where stages and automation are pushing their design boundaries to permit achieving the inconceivable.
This is the rate of change we’re dealing with and that’s why it is vitally important to understand in full the challenges the future will bring.
