More from the venue site, projection 3 and 4 May, kicking off at 8.00pm now



We tested the projection today; the scaffold with the screen and back projector will be built tomorrow. It's a 10k lumen projector, some of the work looked truly amazing even in the bright evening sun.

However we do kick off some time later and it will probably run until 10.30/11.00 now to take full advantage. Paul from Metro Ecosse is a star. Thank you.

The screening installation site, test tonight with Metro Ecosse
