Pixel-Poi programmed to display colourful patterns in Kaleidosope

NEW SHOW: Kaleidoscope

Drawing on their popular show, ‘Flux’, Feeding the Fish have created a larger, more visual and even more stunning performance. ‘Kaleidoscope’ is a strongly choreographed combination of dance, laser manipulation and Pixel-Poi, performed by three dancers to a movingly upbeat classical-fusion soundtrack.

‘Kaleidoscope’ premiered in early June 2008 and has already been performed at a number of high profile events including the Piramal Healthcare Awards in Thailand, the Salle Empire in Monte-Carlo before Prince Albert of Monaco, at the opening party of the 'Queens of Egypt' exhibition for the Egyptian Ambassador to France, in Lyon's historic Salle de la Bourse, for Volvo's '3P' international management event and in Istanbul for the regional launch of the Grundig brand.

Pixel-Poi™

We have recently developed a second generation of Pixel-Poi (Patent Pending). The displayed images now have a higher definition than ever before: dozens of colour shades and multiple words can be made to appear simultaneously. Pixel-Poi are completely unique to Feeding the Fish and can be programmed to display client-logos, graphics or messages to appear in the finale of the act. Recent customised shows have been performed for: Google, Sony Vaio, DHL, Prince Albert of Monaco, Nastro Azzurro and Christina Aguilera.
Besides custom requests, Pixel-Poi are incorporated in all performances of Flux and Kaleidoscope, where they display a huge range of wonderful patterns and graphics, always changing effect on millisecond cues with the music.

Carbon Neutral

Although we love our work and the places it takes us, the downside is huge carbon dioxide emmissions - particularly from air travel. Climate Care has calculated the annual weight of CO2 produced by all our travel and energy use. By joining their carbon neutral programme, our environmental impact is now offset by funding energy efficiency projects and reforestation.
