in the middle of nowhere

in the austrian countryside - basically in the middle of nowhere, i came by this fancy container building. I couldn´t figure out what they use the building for, but i immediately liked it´s rare almhütten style.


an architectal concept we should definitely keep in mind, in case there´s gonna be a PLATOON.austria

DJ SEMINAR: ATTENTION VOL.3 @ PLATOON KUNSTHALLE

last saturday about 70 participants from different backgrounds gathered at PLATOON KUNSTHALLE to enjoy the attention vol.3 dj seminar, organized by the team that also runs the club dj cafe-forum.
we had a nice afternoon between currywurst, dj demonstrations and testing of exclusive dj equipment for everyone.
my personal highlight came up in the end: i had the honor to pick the winner of the prize lottery, who got a ableton live 8 dj software. i've got the power.











dj guru considered the question "what is a dj?"...



















the participants tried out the dj equipment..


























thanks to the dj seminar we got a valuable insight into the world of djing!

MILLER FRESH M COMPETITON - STAGE 1

all PLATOON members had lots to do for the miller fresh m competition at PLATOON KUNSTHALLE. after we finished to set up the stage, lighting and visuals the atmosphere was great even before the first act started. at that point it was like the silence before the storm and nobody could expect how many people would gather in the hall.





seeing the long line that almost reached dosan sageori, everybody felt more strain and excitement building up!














and suddenly the whole container building was really packed in the first 30 min. ok, now we can tell, around 2000 people came to participate in this event!





























the concept was to team up live electronic musicians and vjs and let them perform an audio/visual show. it is probably the first time in korea that such a competition took place at such a big scale!













people could listen to the music of the audio/visual teams at these stations in case they missed some performances. after listening and watching they could vote for their favorite team. also people could see and vote for graphic artists’ works in the showcases.











all a/v teams, graphic artists and jury members(in the picture it's hash, founder of samurai.fm) had an interview with people from the MTV show ‘24hours’. for almost 48 hours the producers had recorded the whole event from the early stages to the end.













all a/v teams showed their best gigs and professional music and visuals. this event was really successful with a lot of crazy people visiting. and dj krush (also one of the jury members) went out to play the final gig which kept most people staying at PLATOON KUNSTHALLE until 2.30am



















it was a hard choice but finally the jury had to pick 4 a/v teams and 4 graphic artists who will go to the next round. thank you everybody for coming, performing and making all this possible! see you again at stage 2!
