We toured Germany in August of 2024 to bring the Scott’s Jazz club experience to Berlin and Harsewinkel.
We travelled with projection mapping kit and LED lighting to create a show that complimented the live music.
We provided a live, fully audio reactive projection mapping show for the launch of The Night Guild’s Devil, Repent! album at the Sonic Arts Research Facility in Belfast.
As part of the Walled City Tattoo in the Millennium Theatre Derry, we provided custom created imagery and ran an 8-sceen LED show that acted as an interactive set for the production.
