yeah i think music should be left to special 'events' or used sparingly and to good effect to give people more to visit the lantern

yeah great photos Will
anyone hear a report on how people were actually at the launch?
anyone good at estimating?

yeah i didnt think it was a secret?...but the interactive capabilities are pretty exciting though

weather forecast looks good for a warmish night at lauch - lets hope it goes off down there!

i think something needs to be done with that intersection too

the space just doesnt quite work right....

i think the lantern also looks better from further away - but there isnt really any good places to view it from

mmm

Some images from tonights test - sorry about the quality ...off my phone

one of the best ways to improve safety at night is to encourage people to be out - having eyes on the street
the safer places are those with lots of people present

have you guys seen this?

has Adelaide been beaten to the punch?
can Rundle Lantern still be called a first for Aust?

I dont think they were planning to light the bottom row - the artist impressions on the ACC website confirms this
i dont know why those panels are missing - maybe to give the hungry jacks sign a bit more time before it is covered

anyone see how far they got today? get that tricky corner bit done?

steel panels illuminated by LEDs - shouldn't be too hard to maintain

its a pity we have to wait til the end of October for the launch - was hoping they might switch it on before then - hopefully they'll do plenty of trials before the official opening

great photos thanks Howie - cant wait til it is done!
there is 748 panels i believe so - 1 panel = 1 pixel ---748pixels?

has anyone got a photo of what they did today?

Great work getting that Howie - lets hope for fine weather for a quick finish!

yeah i've spotted them adding some brackets too this week
Howie - any response from Damien?

are they still aiming for Sept you think?
we just ticked over into august so that isnt far away - cant wait for this one!!
