BRINGING NEXT GENERATION VENUE TECHNOLOGY, DIRECT TO YOU!

elcome to ISSUE 30 of MONDO | STADIA!

WWe were delighted to chat with Mark Murphy, Founder & Director of Experience Studios. It was a fascinating interview, with Mark discussing his wide-ranging career in AV design, working on the likes of Wembley Stadium, Wimbledon Centre Court and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, to name but a few. Now, with the new venture - working closely with Populous - Mark gave us some incredible insight into the AV design of large venues and how his team value creativity in their projects. Check out the full interview on page 8.

We’ve covered Austin’s Moody Center, too, taking a closer look at the 15,000seat venue, with contributions from Henderson Engineers, Daktronics, JBL and Diversified.

There’s also a focus on Butler Esports Park - the new esports and innovation space at Butler University. We’ve taken a look at the design from Populous, as well as the state-of-the-art technology from NewTek powering the broadcast production capabilities for live events and streaming.

Our cover is the spectacular WrestleMania at SoFi Stadium, with the two-night event of LED screens and scenic video technology all driven by Green Hippo’s Hippotizer Boreal+ Media Servers.

Elsewhere, we have plenty of other venues, including Coopers Stadium in Adelaide, which is now equipped with a new d&b audio system, as well as Kappture’s EPOS installation at Brentford FC’s Gtech Community Stadium. There are many more projects and technology inside, too...

Enjoy the latest issue!
