I have missed my blog. I have been so incredibly busy working on a secret project to be released soon, working for CAST Software, and researching posts for JimOnLight.com. I don't remember being this busy, even when I was trying to light a show and write my Master's thesis. I hope that everyone is doing great, and that your 2010 has been stellar thus far!
This last weekend I went down to South By Southwest Interactive in Austin, TX – I presented at the tenth anniversary show for 20×2 – twenty speakers had two minutes to answer one question. This year's question was "Who Loves Ya Baby?" and there were twenty absolutely excellent presentations. Kevin Newsum, Jeff Rider, Mark Couvillion, and Mike Stephens as MC really put on an awesome show to a standing room only house. Gentlemen, thanks for inviting me!
I made a video presentation, rented some LED wash fixtures, pointed them up at the ceiling, and lit up the club with colored light, busking along to the presentation. I've included two videos below – the first video is the actual video presentation, and the second video is of the performance itself. Watch the first video to see the content, because the performance video is a little blossomy with the white contrast.
I hope you enjoy the videos! That was one of the most fun nights I've had in the last few years!
