EVENT FOCUS
ERIC PRYDZ: EPIC 6.0 HOLOSPHERE Debuting at Belgium’s Tomorrowland, the highly anticipated Eric Prydz EPIC 6.0 Holosphere sees the legendary DJ perform inside a giant video-mapped, 3D transparent LED sphere.
EPIC 6.0 Holosphere was the latest in Prydz’s EPIC (Eric Prydz In Concert) series of jaw-dropping visual spectaculars, realised by dream team, longterm collaborators Liam Tomaszewski (Punkette), Ross Chapple (RCLD), Mark Calvert and Dave Green (RES) and Bryn Williams (Light Initiative) with the 8m-high Holosphere forming the centrepiece of the new design. “EPIC 6.0 has been two years in the making, starting with conceptual sketches, through to putting together exactly the right team with the skills, know-how and passion to get the project off the ground, and now successfully delivering the show at Tomorrowland,” said Calvert, who’s
been working with Eric Prydz on the EPIC shows for more than a decade as Executive Show Producer, Production Manager and Co-Show Designer. “When our team presented the concept to Michiel Beers and Jan Herinckx at Tomorrowland, they were extremely supportive and excited to co-produce the show with us,” Calvert continued. “We are very grateful for their faith in this production and equally to our chosen technical fabrication team, Light Initiative. We believe the show takes the core elements of dance music, LED technology, creativity, engineering, lighting and video control to the next level.” 10
