TBILISI, Georgia – SGM’s local distributor in Georgia, AVB Ltd., proposed the SGM LT-100 LED tubes for the centerpiece of the new Club NIN9. The installation of LT-100s was purely ‘plug and play’ and the wave and equalizer effects created by the LED tubes are easily controlled in the club using Madrix.

ITALY – As part of an elaborate lighting design that included breakaway LED panels, LD Mamo Pozzoli used a variety of Clay Paky fixtures for singer Elisa’s recent tour. “In this mix of creativity and technology, the lights serve to provide order. I use them in a rigid geometric way that is completely functional to the rest of the scene. But this does not mean their role is belittled,” said Pozzoli. “On the contrary, precisely owing to their essential function in the overall set-up, I immediately asked for some of the most reliable lights I know: Clay Paky Alpha Beam 700s, Clay Paky Alpha Wash 700s and Sharpys.”

Clad with LED screens on all sides, the set piece weighed 4.6 tons.
