USA - XL Touring Video just finished up the North. American leg of Björk's 2007 Volta Tour. XL provided Bjork and lighting designer, Paul Normandale of Lite Alternative Design, a variety of display technologies to explore before deciding on a Sony 4 camera fly pack and three NEC 61" plasma screens.

The equipment was used for image magnification to display Bjork's many innovating audio technologies, chief among them being the new device called the "Reactable" which displays audio waves visually.

President of XLTV, John Wiseman, says: "It was a unique project and the evolution of the creative process was fascinating."
