Urbanscreen Artists Using Epson Projectors to Present Light Spectacular at Der Schöne Schein, Gasometer Oberhausen |

By Graham K. Rogers
Epson corporation has long been a supporter of programs that benefit others. Examples include
Epson's installation projectors will run for more than 230 days and for over eight hours a day at the Gasometer. Seven projector towers, each with three Epson EB-Z10005 10,000-lumen projectors, have been set up inside the Gasometer to illuminate the interior walls, which reach a height of over 100 metres. In similar way to how the Roundhouse and the former Battersea Power Station have been transformed into centre-pieces for the Arts, the 117.5-meter Gasometer Oberhausen was operated from 1929, but became a cultural icon in 1994 after it was decommissioned (1988). A video of the Urbanscreen Artists exhibit, powered by Epson projectors, is available on You Tube. If you cannot go to Der schöne Schein, at least run the video full-screen.
