69 The evolution of imaging equipment is having an enormous effect not just on television and film, but also on live performances on stage, where the performers and audience share the same space. For this performance, the latest equipment was arranged and tested within the venue, and it was perhaps one of the most ambitious attempts ever made to utilize the latest technology to create spatial-representation effects. The perfor-mance combined magnificent jazz dancing with lighting and video and hinted at the dawn of a new era for stage performance. This entirely new form of spatial representation, based on the use of cutting-edge equipment, was achieved by the skilled engineers and the director, who ensured that the performance was not drowned out by an excessive use of equipment. More than thirty companies collabo-rated to bring together the latest in lighting equipment and video systems. An almost overwhelming array of light-ing and projection materials were focused on the stage: in addition to more than fifty spotlights, the stage was illuminated by thirty-two moving lights, three high-function digital projectors, and one film projector. The rows of control equipment backstage were extremely impressive, resembling the cockpit of an enormous space ship in a science fiction movie, with ten dimmers and four large-scale consoles arranged side by side.
