AQUA LUMA

Lasers in the Cataract Gorge at Launceston? Holy light rays (John) Batman? As part of the MONA FOMA 2021 celebrations, and with the easing of strict restrictions in Tasmania, last weekend we had a presentation of Robin Fox's AQUA LUMA.

 

Twelve-metre-high water jets erupted in time with the subharmonic frequencies of a new electronic composition. Overhead, high-powered lasers traced geometrical patterns in the mist and finally enveloped the audience in a canopy of light and sound.

 

Robin Fox is one of Australia's most progressive modern sound and light artists. robinfox.com.au/

 

This video is a short selection of some highlights. The quality of the visuals and sound in this video is not indicative of the superb live presentation on the night. And that is good, because I do not want to infringe on the artist's copyright. This just gives you a taste of the techno music and wizardry of the show.
