2008 will be known for many things, and even though there are still 10 more months to go, the CD release of Echo Location and performance by MAGNA at Cannibal Flower will be high atop the list.
Many special thanks to our boys who made the visual realm come to life Dave K. - master of lighting, and Jeremy L. - lord of video mixing and projectorism. The show would not have been half the success it was without them. Also, nothing but love for the CF family, especially LC and Michelle, for having MAGNA in their house again. For all the peoples who surprised us and came, and those who we counted on and were there, you were appreciated.
Uncharacteristic of a typical rock show, the band played completely obscured by the 25' tryptic screen, behind a mixture of ever-changing visuals and their silhouetted forms. Heeding reports from out in the crowd, the sizable audience surrounded the screen and watched the imagery, as MAGNA played the appropriate soundtrack.
The bass guitar mounted camera and two corner tripod fixtures transmitted to the video mixing console to be fed into the projector, as well as get recorded for archival purposes, and the band was miked for recoring. Sadly, the tech on the audio end coundn't keep up with the butchness and the audio tracks were not recovered to sync with the video, but the crash had no bearing on the performance.
You saw a whole lot more if you were there, but this is a little peek behind the curtain.
