RoscoLED® Tape Creates A Retro-Futuristic Setting For Arctic Monkeys
Rosco Spectrum: The rock band Arctic Monkeys recently completed their 2018 UK tour in support of their recent album Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino. The tour seduced the crowds with a mix of the band’s popular songs and tracks off the new album that were combined with stage aesthetics that matched the music they were playing. Lighting Designer Paul Normandale installed our RoscoLED Tape VariWhite inside several set elements to convey a retro-futuristic setting of their fictional Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino.

Seeing the various applications for Rosco Technology is always interesting to read about. The technological advances in the entertainment industry have clearly impacted the way a designer curate a piece. I find it interesting that this article talks about the LED tape more than the back end processing and hardware that goes into making the effect. LED technology has been around for many years, especially in the entertainment industry and I think that the industry as a whole is starting to write protocols and applications for them. A company by the name of Adafruit makes a product called neo pixel that is essentially an LED with a “brain” embedded into the unit that makes each device individually addressable. I have been waiting for this technology drop in price and reach the entertainment industry because I truly believe that it would have extensive applications in the work we do.
