eurovision69 – eurovision song contest 2017 
The vision for the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest is the bridge from the past to the present and the future. The eye is a symbol of this bridge – a mutual respect between cultures, countries and people.Kathrin Zechner – ORF’s TV director
Well this is an eye… 44 meters wide, 14.3 meters high.
1288 LED pillars make up this impressive structure. It encloses an 11 metre diameter stage floor. A stage that will a priori allow lighting or video, as the background, a LED wall of 22 metres wide and 8,5 metres high. It must be a lot of LED…
Pleasing first impression on this proposal from Florian Wieder, Al Gurdon and Kurt Pongratz. Obviously, I regret the lack of caltwalk – I love caltwalks ! – But the rather small size of the stage, in such a spectacular environment, is a very positive thing for me.
Obviously, we still have to discover how this 3D image will look like in “motion” and lighting, once made of glass and steel…
