Sinatra Murphy has proven experience in developing public art projects and its response has enabled seven Vessels of Light to be located at four different locations across central Dandenong.
Each vessel incorporates a dynamic lighting element that allows the vessels to be animated after dark creating a special night time experience.
Sinatra Murphy approached CDA for a lighting solution for the project and after a few tests they settled on a 6w,six degree RGB led solution running off a SD-10 DMX playback unit. The lED module is integrated into the top of the light units and provides a shaft of colour changing lED light that spreads its way throughout the acrylic structure of the Vessels of Light.
The SD-10 DMX playback units have been pre-programmed to run a set range of programmes and start up automatically when turned on. LEDs were ideal for this project because they have extremely low power consumption and no ongoing lamp maintenance, says Sinatra Murphy.
