Under The Elephant

[Black Pearl]

Not sure what you were expecting but we did actual go under this elephant - a huge video installation at the Lumiere Festival in Durham tonight.

I saw this on TV News last night........it looked fantastic, I bet the kids love it?

It is many, many moons, since English Heritage imported a French Son-e- Lumiere company to reconstruct, with light and stereophonic sound the long history of Kenilworth Castle......

BOY! That was way back in the1960s........laser, sound and projection techniques have improved leaps and bounds since then, perhaps we should persuade English a Heritage to do it again?

I remember that my kids were totally bowled over by the whole thing.

Very well captured!

I like it!

Ha ha, good one. I'd be very wary of going under the elephant; you know what happens when you find yourself under a seagull!

Pooped on!

 

I work in the building with the graphic equaliser projected on it, and to be honest was dissapointed in lumiere this year, seemed a bit sparse, installation wise, and not as inspired as in previous years

Have to agree, it was too spread out and the organisation was worse than ever.

That light show on the cathedral though I've seen it before is still spectacular and almost worth the visit on its own.
