Probably used for the newer technology called video or projection mapping. Like when the NBA team shows a pre-game production where you can chess pieces moving around the court and then they simply melt away...those are done by massive powerful projectors.

Modern projectors are really amazing on many levels.

My question is: Where is it placed?

That is a pretty long throw...

I don't really want to know... just curious.

I would hate to tip off those who may want to quash the act.

(And the geek in me wants to know if it is a Barco or a Christie!)


It is brilliant!

I was joking that the guys who WERE doing it had the masks, but auto correct said that WE'RE doing it.
Sorry bout that.

In my work, "HSI" always gets corrected to "HIS". @#$%&* Anyway, I figured that's what happened to you.

I refuse to give into the lure of PowerPoint (it makes people dumber, at least temporarily) but I've got several colleagues who use it for presentations, and most have taken to carrying a small projector with their laptops because it's easier to carry their own than hope they can make their machine interface with whatever is in the room. A Pico Cube fits on my palm, weighs about 200 grams, runs for 4 hours on an internal battery, connects via wifi and bluetooth, costs $200 or so, and can throw a low res, mostly static image about 100 feet. I wouldn't want to watch most movies against a building wall with it, but it's fine for signage.

The tech is moving *fast* these days.

Great caricature, in his little KKK robe and hat, he almost looks like a little troll doll. Of course there's nothing "cute" about Sessions, he's an evil little bastard, AND HE MUST GO! Naming that guy as Attorney General was a slap in the face to all Americans, but especially Black America, and he's a lying piece of excrement as well. I hope Sessions and Trump are cell mates in Leavenworth.
