  • Christie D20WU-HS glows at Eindhoven Light Festival

    Christie's brightest single DMD projectors were used at the GLOW Eindhoven international light art festival that ran last week at Eindhoven city centre.



    Dutch Christie distributor Sahara Benelux provided 12 Christie D20WU-HS projectors for an impressive video mapping installation on the face of the 19th century Catharinakerk, a neo-gothic Roman Catholic church located in the centre of Eindhoven.

    “We’re delighted that Sahara Benelux has chosen to invest in our latest HS Series models, and it’s rewarding to see them already being used in high profile global events like GLOW Eindhoven,” says Miles Donovan, Senior Channel Development Manager, Enterprise, EMEA, Christie. “The HS Series is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, delivering high brightness and vibrant colours in a lightweight and compact form factor. It’s our pleasure to play a part in helping to enable the world’s best shared experiences, and we can’t wait to see the creativity on show at GLOW.”

    Hundreds of thousands of revellers visited Eindhoven for the international light art festival, which attracts international artistic talent in the field of light art and technology. The event, which is in its 13th iteration, saw more than 30 art installations located on a 5km route across Eindhoven’s city centre, with this year’s theme based on ‘Shadows & Light’. The original project – created by Ocubo – was inspired by the confluence of rivers and streams in Holland. The kinetic art let virtual dancers guide the viewer through the film, with flourishes of colour emphasising the church’s stunning architecture in an array of eye-catching geometric combinations.

    At Catharinakerk, visitors will see the Confluence video mapping installation powered by the D20WU-HS projectors, which can operate at full brightness, twenty thousand lumens, on a single single phase circuit. Sahara Benelux is also providing 10 Christie UHD 551-L LCD panels for Glowie, an interactive art installation combining chatbot technology, voice commands and light art.
