... This is how (I'm sure) most of the great directors - Sergei Eisenstein, Dziga Vertov, Orson Wells, Andrei Tarkovsky, Fellini (et al) worked - allowing the...
... I like the phrase "pre-frame imagination." Very much. I think it connects with another idea, expressed in much less poetic terms, about the construction...
Further to recent discussion regarding audio archives documenting the medium's history, taking another look at the Yahoo site, there is potential to enhance...
Although as someone pointed out, unidirectional seating existed in the late 1960's, but the accelerration of this type of seating in the 1980s and '90s IMHO...
... I would say that we can trace the inspiration back to the introduction of All-Sky slide-based systems in planetaria and Omnimax theaters. Once All-Skies...
... Perhaps the only to address this is to more clear about whose inspiration we're addressing. I'm very interested in integrating the disparate efforts that...

... All very good Eric, except for that last one. Sonicvision was not the first visual-music fulldome show. Ok it probably was the first to use music by Moby. ...
... And the first to have legally acquired music rights, I believe. ... Well, SonicVision ain't really dance music, except for a tune or two. And I have to...
... Hey, scoot your wheelchair over and pass the Geritol ;) I'm still experiencing flashbacks from the Vanderbeek "Movie Dome" in Stony Point, New York ~ "an...
... I actually think this stuff is vital to have *somewhere* on wikipedia for research references and contextualization of what we're doing, though I agree...
... Khem, Any chance you could share with us a bit about what you experienced/thought/remember about Movie-Drome? I put the Media-Drome in the timeline last...
Actually, I probably agree with Ryan that the music shows really don't belong on the timeline, as they were actually the descendants of laser shows and other ...
... Thanks for filling me in about the Clark Planetarium. As a far-away newbie I'm bound to get it wrong at times. Re: the Floyd vs dance music - Moby's music...
... Perhaps we need an "immersive art" page and/or an "immersive cinema" page. (The caves at Lascaux belong on an "immersive art" page, just not on the...
... Agreed, though since this doesn't currently exist, and since it is just the discussion page, I find the dialogue to be a very useful one. I would prefer to...

Hiya all, Since even the first Digistar I (circa 1983) was capable of putting a moving vector/calligraphic image over the entire dome -- besides the 3D...

I feel like I should let this go, but I just can't. The moderator should probably cut me off, but I'm the moderator, so I won't. I think I redeem myself...
Gee guys, if you decide to include just about everything, why are you leaving out the original optical star projectors... think about it... what's the...
Ryan and all: I think the discussion of music is ok for this forum. After all, part of the group is to discuss the artistic and conceptual side of fulldome as...
