Technical Layout Diagrams
[DIAGRAMS Julian and Ozone team.]
Equipment connections in approximate geometry in iStage.
SUMMARY (Details following diagram below):
Camera array: 1 wide angle tracking from ceiling grid, 2 side tracking cameras on the floor. (2 Kinects at right angles from sides.)
Speaker array: 8.1 channel sound.
Projectors: 4 projectors beaming onto the floor to cover the floor, OR 3 projectors shared with Dome. (See Daniel Fine and Matt Ragan)
Lighting array: generals to evenly illuminate floor for documentation, permitting projected video. IR for tracking. 2-4 sets of specials to be set during workshop, ideally moving lights that can be driven via DMX by Max software.

Inventory
Spreadsheet describing TML gear (ask Julian Stein)
AME Tech Team and Synthesis Coordinators should see:
• How much is in stock or can be borrowed for workshop.
• What is the minimum needed to acquire to run the core Rhythm and Transition experiments.
• What TML should bring (e.g. small custom items that may take too long to acquire or build by Feb 14.)
