Guest lightnix Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Following on from the Strand MMS, pin matrix and Avolites history threads, I thought it might be fun to start up a thread for links to sites featuring lighting kit of yesteryear. We all know about the Strand Archive and fans of old desks might like this site, although it's a little basic at the moment. I also found this site on the history of light & lighting, starting with the birth of the Universe. If you know of or find any similar sites out there, pop a link to them in here EDIT:A Brief Outline of the History of Stage LightingA Brief History of the Arc LampThe Edisonian Museum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gareth Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Moderation, 29/10/04 00:12 - various posts in this topic have been split off to a new thread here. Please try to keep things on-topic, guys and girls - Lightnix started this topic as a place to post links to sites about lighting kit from yesteryear. Interesting though it is to ask questions about what modern-day kit we'll be remembering in 'x' years time, it's off-topic for this particular thread. Thanks.
