In Krakow Poland VJ Peter Greenaway attracted 4000 spectators in the city square. On June 17 2005 Peter Greenaway, director of film classics like The Pillow Book, The Cook The Thief His Wife And Her Lover, Prospero's books and The Tulse Luper Suitcases, demonstrated in Club 11 Amsterdam his first VJ performance during the NoTV CNCDNC visual art club evening. On music by DJ Serge Dodwell (aka Radar), 'VJ' Greenaway used for his set a special VJ system consisting of a large plasma screen with touchscreen, developed for CNCDNC by BeamSystems. Utilizing this system, Greenaway projected the 92 Tulse Luper stories on the 12 screens of Club 11 in a multi-screen way and mixed the images 'live'. The result was amazing: Greenaway rocked the crowd in Amsterdam's VJ temple "11", blending his avantgarde cinematographic imagery (taken from the Tulse Luper Suitcases movie) with the heavy movie score remix by DJ Radar. Mastering the giant touch screen the newborn 'realtime image conductor' Greenaway provided a totally new experience to the audience: Live Cinema at its best. The magnificent VJ debut of Peter Greenaway did not go unnoticed. As "real time image conductor" he finally freed himself from classic cinematographic linearity. With his outstanding cinematographic eye and energetic approach Greenaway won the respect of fellow VJs worldwide and hereby set the pace in the toplevel international VJ scene. The tremendous succes of this performance made NoTV and Peter Greenaway decide to take the performance to a next level, and bring it to the international audience by starting the official "NoTV Peter Greenaway Tulse Luper VJ World Tour". The performance has travelled successfully worldwide (Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Poland, UK, Brasil) and we are happy to announce that the public and media interest exceeded all expectations. We will therefore continue the tour in 2008. |
