Project data

  • The Joshua Light Show is known for its "liquid projections" (real-time projections based on special color oils) to complement psychedelic lighting effects. For over 50 years, the light show has accompanied famous bands such as MGMT, Janis Joplin and The Who.
  • The artists use an 11.3 x 9.8 m STUDIO front and rear projection screen as a projection surface for their individual projections.
  • The projection screen was manufactured in 1980 for the band Black Sabbath. Apart from occasional cleaning, the projection screen is still in perfect condition today.
