\"\"<\/a>In an effort to catchup to current times wit this blog, heres what been going on over the past few weeks since the last update beginning in October.
\nThe very beginnings of october was a week full working with \u00a059Productions helping out with possible system design scenarios for the pending DavidBowieIS exhibition due to go into the V&A museum next March which looks like its going to be a pretty media intense experience, I’m pretty sure I cannot say anything more than that right now!<\/p>\n

With a couple of days off i was back on a plane all the way to South Korea to do the setup and some video programming for the Korean mount of Les Miserables in Seoul. The first week was a rather busy week setting up and getting the system ready for Jon arriving the following week to take over the programming up until press night, by the time everyone had their desks setup in the auditorium it was very much like mission control.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the sunday we had off Jon and Myself went to the aA Design<\/a> museum in Seoul.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I wasn’t sure what to expect when we turned up there but the place is actually a cafe first, and a kind of museum\/shop second. Unfortunately the shop was closed when we were there but the decor of the cafe and the feel of the place is pretty cool, definitely a place to visit. Of the few places we managed to get around in our 2 sundays off in seoul this area around Sangsu rail station (37.547767,126.922955) was quite a neat area to visit!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Upon returning home from Seoul i had decided to build my first Hexacopter and after quite a bit of research settled on the DJI<\/a> F550 kit with the NAZA controller. The kit was pretty straight forward to build but quite a learning curve getting into the whole radio control business and such. After a few school boy errors in setup myself and my good friend Iain<\/a>\u00a0had a very successful first flight with the copter and we were massively impressed by the responsiveness of this thing. More about this in future blog posts!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Whilst I was in Korea i had a call from Roy at Stage one Creative Services<\/a>\u00a0asking for some advice on a project they had where they needed to transmit power and data down a slip-ring to a huge mirror ball which had LED screens on the outside. I managed to find a product which would do the job and thought nothing of it until a couple of weeks later I saw a huge LED mirro-ball outside the TATE gallery, after quick mail to Hayden at the Colorsound Experiment<\/a> who were StageOnes’s client for this and low and behold it was the same project!<\/p>\n

By the end of November I was back on a plane to South Korea again this time to work with Simon Wait on the automation side of Les Miserable Korea for its move from Seoul to Deagu. It was very good and rather busy 10 days working with Simon, Shin, Bak and Jong Min.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0Thats it for now, im currently sat in Starbucks in London with a strong coffee watching people walk by on a very wet Oxford street! Next update will once again be sooner rather than later!<\/p>\n
