'So we immediately got down to work and started developing a projection that would match the 90 minutes or so the composition lasts.' The importance of silence

To this end, it wished to make the most of new technologies, although of course remaining absolutely respectful with the primacy of the music over the projection', explained Fausto Morales Gil, Slidemedia's art director. 'OBC and L'Auditori, home of the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra, wanted to add a new dimension to its performance of Verdi's Requiem that would make it much more than a simple concert. According to Gundula Kreuzer, 'Most perceived a schism between the religious text (with all its musical implications) and Verdi's setting.' Barcelona Symphony Orchestra (OBC) commissioned company Slidemania to reimagine a visual setting for its performance of Verdi's opera at the L'Auditori in Barcelona and help bring audiences closer to the emotional context of the work. Both musically and in the ecclesiastical décor designed for the performance. Playing Autonomouslyįeel free to disconnect Millumin from the MilluNode, so its canvas can run as an autonomous project.Laser phosphor projection for Verdi’s RequiemĪt the time of its premiere, Verdi's Requiem was criticized by some as being too operatic in style for the religious subject matter. There are 4 modes for monitoring : the first 3 ones are various quality of monitoring, while the fourth one makes both Millumin and MilluNode rendering the content. To save power, you can use monitoring so only MilluNode is rendering the content, and Millumin still gets a preview via the network. Media files will be automatically transfered to the MilluNode for efficient playback (a placeholder will show you the transfert progress if needed). Once the canvas for MilluNode setup, you can close Millumin's 'Output' popup then create your content just as usual. Of course, you can use several outputs in each canvas (for soft-edge purposes for example). If you need to use different outputs from various computer, just create one canvas per computer. It is important to understand that a canvas must be connected to only one computer : either your Macintosh running Millumin, either one of your computers running a MilluNode. Select a MilluNode in the list : now you can select outputs from this MilluNode. Now, open Millumin's 'Output' popup (shortcut is CMD+ ) : the detected MilluNode(s) will appear at the top of your canvas properties : Canvas Launch Millumin then your MilluNode(s), and go click the 'Use Remote Control' button :

We recommend to use network Ethernet cable for efficiency, but a good Wifi can be also used. Also, this will create a project that can play autonomously then.įirst, be sure your computers are on the same network. This tutorial will show you how to use MilluNode as a 'remote display', so you could get more outputs than the physical ones of your computer. If you do not want to transfert your project via an external drive, consider using Millumin to remotely edit your project on the MilluNode. A windows with the video output will appear and you go fullscreen by activating the ad hoc checkbox. To choose one, click the 'Setup' button and choose the display among the ones connected to the computer. However you may be missing a video output. The dashboard of your project is displayed vertically in MilluNode's interface, and you can launch or stop a particular column. Now on MilluNode's computer and once the project copied, run MilluNode and open your project. Then copy the resulting folder onto an external drive (such as a USB stick) and transfert it on the MilluNode's computer. Once your project is created on Millumin, click on 'Project' menubar then 'Collect files'. This tutorial will show you how to play a project autonomously with MilluNode, so you could run a Millumin's project on a PC.
