Performance Space, Creativity & Technology

Thinking about our current topic of performance spaces, I remembered one of those videos you stumble upon on YouTube. In this case, it's about creative people coming up with new, interesting ways of entertaining others, and essentially, introducing innovative performance spaces.

This is the case with the Tesla Coils - A type of resonant transformer invented by Nikola Tesla, which serves to produce high voltage alternating current electricity. Used for otherwise scientific & industrial applications, the performance group ArcAttack devised a way to use the Tesla Coils as an instrument, & a very interesting show. Seen below from YouTube videos.
