Beyond the Meetings of today
The meetings industry’s first “Mega freeze mob’ was arranged in conjunction with insights and studies into the future of meetings and information. Mediatec also presented technology for virtual meetings in which a person is ‘moved’ from one place to another in 1:1 scale. This was visualised through actors who performed the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet.
Beyond Entertainment
Dance group Bounce served up a suggestive show of world-class standard featuring Trampwall, Schizo and Stage Drop, amongst others. Lighting design expressed itself through 46 moving units and was devised by Mediatec’s Christian Irestad.
Beyond Interaction
In an unfurnished room where the atmosphere was delivered through wall projections, an MJ (Mood Jockey) created an event together with participants.
Beyond Conventional
A 60 metre stage through the entire venue, film and TV furniture from the SVT warehouse, modern backdrops, plexi-seating, luxurious chandeliers and interesting ornaments gave guests a dining environment far removed from that of an ordinary event. Entertainment was provided by 5 unconventional acts, all with the signature of Stina Oscarsson and Viktoria Dahlborg. A visual communication of form, colour and artistry.
