Sean's dragon at Coachella 2006

Hand of Man by Christian Ristow at Coachella 2009. It is comprised of a 26-foot (8 meter) long hydraulically-actuated human hand and forearm which is capable of picking up and crushing cars, and a “glove” device that controls it. Any movement in the “glove” controller is accurately reproduced in the large robotic Hand. Fighter Jets, Glove, Movement, Human Hand, Man

Pyrocardium by False Profits installed at both Electric Daisy Carnival and Coachella 2009. The art crew would hook up a monitor to a fan's heartbeat and the fire sculpture would shoot fire accordingly in a circular fashion.

Lucent Dossier at Coachella 2009. Their placement in the center of the festival was our centerpiece. Some art hits a few senses, but within The Do Lab all senses are entertained. It has its own music, art, performance environments, architecture, and fun boys and girls with water cannons. Then night would transform the whole area with Josh's amazing lighting design.
