... happened today! I was on an event where people like to suffer. Indeed, a sports competition! It is a mystery to me what people are thinking when they run about 10 miles up and down, I shall probably never know. (I was there because it happens in my street, just in case you could misunderstand.)
But in the tent there was a light installation. For that event it was rather spectacular: 2x4 spots and 2 scanners (I mean the light effect, not the mirrors from laser equipment). They had also a professional controller for the spots. Now it comes... The controller stood unused behind the stage, they did not know how to use it ("No, you need also a DMX-bar!" -"A what?" -"A DMX-Bar! Otherwise you can't control your spots!" -"No, the bar is over there, at the other side of the tent. What is DMX?") and the scanners where used sound-controlled separately. I have tried to explain that they should use a cable to let the scanners operate synchronised ("Just put a microfone cable between them." -"Why am I still listening at you?"). <-- Maybe the disadvantage for being 16.
My question is... what should we do to those people? I would like to say: burning with my laser, but it is only 40 mW.
