Stereosonic - November 2011

2011.11-stereosonicRecords were smashed when Stereosonic came to Sydney.  Over 60,000 fans packed the showgrounds, making this year's event the biggest dance party in Australian history.  Oracle lasers provided the big gun impact inside the main venue, ANZ Stadium, for headline act, Armin van Buuren.

With a rig that included our latest 15 watt full colour lasers, Oracle worked closely with the lighting and video team to create a spectacular finish to an amazing festival.  With the festival calendar now packed and fans eager for something extra special, a well designed, well timed and high impact laser show can give that extra lift to a production, 'turning it up to eleven' as the man once said...

Lights down, roll classical music, go lasers... January 2012

Australia Day lasers over Darling HarbourOracle Attractions now has the ultimate fleet of outdoor lasers.  Since late last year, our new 15W full colour spectrum lasers have filled Australia's biggest stadiums with dazzling beams, perfectly colour integrated with the lighting show.  Perched atop skyscrapers, they have fired across the Brisbane River and played above the heads of thousands of excited Queenslanders at the Brisbane Festival.  Most recently, they provided a dramatic change of pace and mood at Sydney's Australia Day celebrations at Darling Harbour.

New Direction for Australia Day on Darling Harbour - January 2012

The Australia Day logo laser projection on 35m water jetsAndrew Walsh brought his renowned creativity to this year's Australia Day on Darling Harbour, serving Sydneysiders an event with layer upon layer of shifting moods and drama.  Oracle Attractions, working in concert with the audio, lighting and pyrotechnics teams, delivered the climax of the show.  As the production reached it's crescendo, Oracle's water jets spouted great parabolic arcs from either side of the show barge.  These created massive curtains of water some 50m wide, the perfect canvas for Oracle's latest 15W full colour lasers.  From a swirl of colour ribbons, the laser sequence built the closing image of the Australia Day logo.

Oracle Wins ILDA Award - December 2011

Lasers light the roof of AAMI Stadium2011 finishes with a shazzizle as we win the International Laser Display Association Award for Innovation!  The award was given for our laser display at Melbourne's new AAMI Stadium, a challenge that took architectural laser lighting to a whole new level.  It took a rig of 27 lasers and many late nights for Oracle's team perched high above the Stadium's unique multi-domed roof, rigging, building a microwave control network, and programming.  Each line and curve of the roof was painstakingly traced with the lasers.  Once all the systems were integrated, Oracle could create one complete, moving animation across the entire roof structure. The result was a mesmerizing display of shifting and changing geometry. A sufficiently impressive sight for the 30,000 fans who turned out for the opening game.

Melbourne Central Plaza - September 2011 Edition

Melbourne Central Shot Tower InstallationLocated in Melbourne's CBD is the Melbourne Central shopping centre. What makes this location so unique is the centre was built around an old "shot tower" where they used to make shot gun pellets by dropping the molten lead 50 metres into a sand base allowing the pellets to harden as round as possible. On this iconic tower we installed a full colour laser system that illuminates the towers features nightly with cartoon animations and also an amazing beamshow through haze!
