KoLAB Studios first developed the concept of this lighting fixture and we [Hype Pype] were approached in collaboration with NSL Productions and a small team of specialist freelancers to turn it into a reality.

Designed and built from the ground up, each of the 18 pipes feature 3 lengths of 60 LEDs per meter tape and a diffuse outer case. With all three strips acting as one this creates a powerful full spectrum punch. What started as simply a white lighting fixture was upgraded into a full RGBW Pixel-tape fixture capable of running video content.

We then set about developing a live visual show for their upcoming tour, aiming to create a collection of looks almost entirely within Resolume, using it’s generative content and effects, to maintain the flexibility needed to keep up with the DJ’s ever evolving process. We focused the intro of the set into a much more specific time coded piece however which created a strong first impression for each set.

I was subsequently approached to make a small pack of bespoke VJ clips for their international summer tour.
