“It’s great to see you’re planning for Mediatech already! I’m currently on a Round The World trip hitting up a few trade shows on my way, and I’m planning to join you guys at Mediatech from LumenRadio, so here are my bits and pieces” – Peter Kirkup.

 

Anything significant that led you to work in this industry?

I’ve always had a passion about stage lighting, I remember being about 7 years old and being shown backstage at the makeshift theatre in my village in England.  They had a plugboard with some switches to work as a ‘lighting desk’.  At the time it fascinated me – with hindsight, it just scares me!

 

Please mention your latest products? 

LumenRadio’s complete range is gaining a lot of attention this year – we just did the Grammy Awards, and have our OEM products in some of the major manufacturers new products, such as the Robe Robin LEDwash 800.

 

Is there anything new in the pipeline, a new project or innovation that we can look forward to in the future?

We’ve got a couple of really exciting things coming, which we should be able to show you at Mediatech – watch this space!

 

The favourite job you’ve ever worked on?

It’s got to be the Gangnam video from last year, surely!

 

If you attended Mediatech in 2011, what was your impression of the show?

I wasn’t there, but I’ve heard so much about it… Not all of it publishable!

 

Hope these are okay, and say hi to everyone at DWR from me!
