Week 6 Obsession

 After working on "An Iliad" I went with my roommate to this nightclub called "TIME" in Costa Mesa. I have always been obsessed with the lights used in night clubs. The many movers, LED's, lasers, LED Strips, LED Pucks, and Pixel mapping help enhance the atmosphere. This club in particular had very beautiful color choices, and use of effects. The chandelier above the dance floor also synced up to the music, and it was simply breathtaking. I have always been obsessed with music, and I always loved cueing to music. I want to improve my ability to catch shifts within music and be able to support it with appropriate effects, and knowing what color pallet best supports the song. "TIME" focused more on House music, which has a fairly constant beat, and a constant drop. House music is very similar to Trap music, which makes it difficult to catch shifts within the song. In the club I found myself listening to the music and expecting when shifts should happen and how kinetic the lights should have been. There were times were the lights didn't shift, when the music did. Yet over all it was so beautiful, and I would simply die to get my hands on all these fixtures, and be able to play around with them. Also, something interesting that I noticed was that the exit signs were all green instead of your usual red, which I found very clever. The green blended better with the color pallet they used, and it stood out enough that we were able to notice where all the exit signs were.
