Looks amazing! I have images of everyone sitting at the other end of the room grinning like mad!!
Thanks for uploading the pics and vid.

Sorry I could only get along on the Sunday afternoon where only the lasershow hardcore were left. I would have loved to have got there earlier, but was otherwise stuck working in London on “a little laser project” :)
As well as being able to say hello to faces old and new, it was great to see such lovely looking laser projectors and beams filling a nice open space. The quality of the beams and shows are superb, and the whole thing is just nice and relaxed. Putting the many of the “professional” installations I have the pleasure of attending, to shame also.
Jem, you have done a great job there getting that nice relaxed laser environment up and going. Anyone sitting on the fence, and thinking about going should just grab the opportunity, and forget about carbon footprints and jump in the car, as it’s rare that you can get so many laser enthusiastic people and lasers together in one place, without the stresses of a production to worry about.
As long as I’m not working anywhere, I’ll be at the next one for sure! – And hopefully a bit earlier in the day. (maybe if it’s held a little bit further away from the start of the festival season a few more could attend).
Thanks again,
James
Hi Al
No, we used the Unique 2 Hazer. We ran the pump on 15 and the fan on 30 all weekend and it maintained a lovely light haze, just as it should be :). In fact, if the lights were turned on it was barely discernible that there was any haze in the hall at all.
@ James... Glad you enjoyed your brief time with us, and thank you for your kind words. We'll look forward to seeing you at the next meet, and hopefully we'll get a chance to have a look at the goodies we didn't get chance to look at this time ;)
Unique did well then. :D
I thought someone from the group buy would have brought a Phantom, probably Wookie.
Hi guys, gutted I couldn't make this but was stuck in London since Friday until today. I've been working on a serious bit of business for a year with lots of time away from home and finally pulled it off this weekend.... happy chappy but think I can sleep for a week now. Should have plenty of free lasertime now.....
Carl, show looks great on video looking forward to seeing it first hand.
Sorry I could only stay for a few hours on Saturday, but a very enjoyable few hours it was, lovely to see everyone again, and as mentioned above, nice to see lasershows in their pure state, without having to compete with other elements. It did occur to me that this showplace situation simply doesn't exist anywhere anymore, so Jemlem truly is something special! :)
And many thanks to Janet for the lovely lunch! :)
P.S. "The Wizard Of Oz" went very well, the pyros nearly gave the old fellow in the front row a heart attack, and there was a raffle at the interval with the opportunity to win a 4 pack of Konica VHS tapes! :)
P.P.S. I didn't mention the pig.
See Pics from the weekend, whos hiding in the beams ?
I think he's doing Agadoo. ( http://youtu.be/POv-3yIPSWc )
I love that dancing banana! *retardo
Nice video. The yellow from what we believe to be Kevski's is particularly nice. There is something to be said for nicely matched projectors and someone with the talent to remap zones like that on they fly.
Just been re-visiting my hazer comment and looked at the pics whilst I was here.
Was that 532 in the Rob in the beams picture? I'm guessing it was probably just he camera but the green looks darker than 532.
Maybe he's the music man?
He comes from down your way.....

Well Ive been rumbled - nothing to do with black lace but green beams
See below for a drawing of how its achieved.
The method is simple, Select the wavelength you want to inject using a single colour laser or some means of selecting the wavelength in this case 514nm.
Catch the beam in a funnel to allow it to be poured into the new host. - Careful of spillage (newspaper advised)
Ensure new host is on at full power to allow outflow of old wavelength light and infill of new wavelength.
When its full - carful observation needed - Turn off fill source and firmly screw the cap back on the new host.
Done!
Rob
Woa Rob, brilliant! I always wondered how that was done. Have you patented that red funnel?
Al, to save you the thinking power, so you don't pop a 2N3055 or equivalent nested firmly in yer bonce, you are most possibly, correct me someone if I am wrong, being referenced to as No7?
Do you have anything to say on this matter?
I think rather better than you give me credit for Jim.
I wasn't there, I don't know who owned the projectors being used in the pic, the could easily be Atoms. There was nothing wrong in asking. If you'd used your brain, you'd have remembered that I wasn't present!
You'd be better off putting your brain power into something creative rather than using it for stirring shit. That's what sticks are for and then it doesn't clog your brain!

@ James - You are more than welcome to attend the Surfleet LEM in September also. It's a totally different event to Jem's but I think you would still enjoy it.
Jim

@ Mark - If there was a 'like' button on this ere forum I would be hitting it ard!
Do you know chaps, I've been looking at the beams in the forth picture and quite honestly I personally think Alan is correct! That Green looks to be containing not enough green? It looks too light to be 534nm Green so that leaves me with no alternative but to suggest adding some yellow just to bring that red down a bit so it matches the grey?
PS - Forgot to mention, I have just purchased a new camera, Yeah, it's a Cannon DX444AIAT Full Spectrum SLR made in conjunction with Kvant and Yvette Fielding off of Most Haunted. That should bring them colours out just pukka!
Thanks for the invitation Jim.
If I haven't got other commitments (i.e. work getting in the way!), I look forward to joining the fun. - I'll be able to let you know nearer the time.
All the best, James
