MAD_Orb setup
A breakdown of our setup for the MAD_Orb installation.
On the pictures, Zedd, main performer of the event, held by Vice Magazine.

our QC-app to generate the realtime content:
Our simulator, to be able to work at the office without the actual construction.
This replaces a WYSIWYG setup which proved to be overly complicated, especially under our time constraints. The Orb was modelled and uvw textured in 3dsmax, then rendered in realtime using a syphon texture:
The MadMapper / MAD_Light setup, sending 24 artnet universes:

It would be nice if you shared in more detail how such a structure assembled

do you mean the scaffolding part ?
it’s been drawn into autocad then built according to our specifications
