Fenchurch Dome - prepare to leave planet earth...

BLOC wrote:Our good pals at Fenchurch have gone the extra mile for the BLOC family in 2010! They have provided us with a brand new venue at Butlins Minehead - The other-worldly Recursive Function Immersive Dome:

The Fenchurch Dome is an awe-inspiring audio-visual experience like no other. Best described as a cross between a four-to-the-floor club and a planetarium, the panoramic projection installation allows lucky BLOC'ers to stand inside the VJ's three dimensional vision, watching a virtual reality being created totally live and in 360 degrees overhead and all the while losing themselves entirely to the sounds of the future. It's a unique experience for BLOC 2010 and we can't wait to share it with you all.

You just won't believe it till you see the dome in action - check this link for awesome footage of the dome moving...
This thing looks absolutely great, check out the video: http://www.youtube.com/user/RFIDVideoChannel

From the Digitonal blog:

"Josh and I have played the last 3 of these in our AGT guise. We do so again this year, with the added bonus of a Digitonal laptop set in the Fenchurch Dome. This is looking quite mental and we're going to be dragging along Callum on visual duties as well - the prospect of projecting across the entire surface of a dome has enticed him out of retirement.

Expect a bit of a different set this year as I go back to my ambient, acid and strict electronica roots and throw in some new material to boot. More on all of this very soon."

Are AGT doin' a pick-me-up set this year too? I hope so - I need the wee boost of an evening.
