Emerging from avant-garde art performances of the 1960s, light shows became the hip accompaniment to gigs and clubs in the 1970s. Swirling coloured oils and kaleidoscopic patterns were projected across bands and venues, while 360 degree painted ?panorama wheels? would slowly rotate in projectors, showing only a section of the image at any one time.Wheels of Light brings together the images made by the key projection companies that sprung up in the UK, including Optikinetics, Pluto and Orion, and tells their story. From abstract psychedelia to alien planets, the designs for these rotating projections are a snapshot of the creativity and inventiveness of an era.Bron : https://www.fourcornersbooks.co.uk/books/wheels-of-light/

"Through a series of detailed historical case studies, Alison Griffiths explores the uncanny and unforgettable visceral power of the medieval cathedral, the panorama, the planetarium, the IMAX theater, and the science museum. Examining these structures as exemplary spaces of immersion and interactivity, Griffiths reveals the sometimes surprising: antecedents of modern media forms, suggesting the spectator's deepseated desire to become. Immersed in a virtual world. Shivers Down Your Spine demonstrates how immersive and interactive museum display techniques such as large video displays, reconstructed environments, and touch-screen computer interactives have redefined the museum space, fueling the opposition between public and private, science and spectacle, civic and corporate interests, voice and text, and life and death. In her remarkable study of sensual spaces, Griffiths explains why, for centuries, we keep coming back for more."--Jacket.

Die Lebenskultur der Spätantike war wesentlich durch das römische Spielewesen mit seinen Wagenrennen, Bühnenschauspielen und Arenakämpfen geprägt. Zum ersten Mal in der Forschung wird mit diesem Buch eine Gesamtstudie zum Thema spätrömischer Spiele vorgelegt. Der gesellschaftliche Umgang mit Spielen und ihre soziale Rolle werden am Beispiel der wichtigsten Akteure illustriert: der Kirche, den Herrschern, den städtischen Eliten und dem breiten Publikum. Der Fokus richtet sich dabei besonders auf die Situation in den Provinzen, abseits der Hauptstädte Rom und Konstantinopel. In einer gattungsspezifischen Betrachtung werden die Spektakel im Zirkus, im Theater und in der Arena zudem in ihren jeweils eigenen Entwicklungen untersucht. Neben schriftlichen Quellen basiert die Studie auf einer Vielzahl von epigraphischen, papyrologischen, numismatischen und archäologischen Zeugnissen. Auf diese Weise werden bisherige chronologische Einordnungen hinterfragt und nach Regionen genauer differenziert. Auch der Niedergang einzelner Gattungen wird einer neuen Betrachtung unterzogen. Somit leistet die Untersuchung einen grundlegenden Beitrag zum Verständnis städtischer Lebenskultur zwischen dem 4. und 7. Jahrhundert nach Christus.

Public Spectacles in Roman and Late Antique Palestine introduces readers to the panoply of public entertainment that flourished in Palestine from the first century BCE to the sixth century CE. Drawing on a trove of original archaeological and textual evidence, Zeev Weiss reconstructs an ancient world where Romans, Jews, and Christians intermixed amid a heady brew of shouts, roars, and applause to watch a variety of typically pagan spectacles. Ancient Roman society reveled in many such spectacles—dramatic performances, chariot races, athletic competitions, and gladiatorial combats—that required elaborate public venues, often maintained at great expense. Wishing to ingratiate himself with Rome, Herod the Great built theaters, amphitheaters, and hippodromes to bring these forms of entertainment to Palestine. Weiss explores how the indigenous Jewish and Christian populations responded, as both spectators and performers, to these cultural imports. Perhaps predictably, the reactions of rabbinic and clerical elites did not differ greatly. But their dire warnings to shun pagan entertainment did little to dampen the popularity of these events. Herod’s ambitious building projects left a lasting imprint on the region. His dream of transforming Palestine into a Roman enclave succeeded far beyond his rule, with games and spectacles continuing into the fifth century CE. By then, however, public entertainment in Palestine had become a cultural institution in decline, ultimately disappearing during Justinian’s reign in the sixth century.
