Our Cover story highlights how the Khareef Festival organisers worked with event specialist GT Stagetech to create a multimedia spectacle using PIXERA media server systems. The 360° multimedia experience was designed to look like a diamond-shaped monolith with all angled sides receiving mapped content of colourful patterns and tessellating shapes. Our Feature Column touches on Live Music. After two long years, live music is finally back.

A big trend that we’re seeing is the digitization of professional audio tools and app-based remote control and monitoring. This is another lasting feature from the COVID-19 pandemic era – the sharp ascent of the use of technologies that fuelled the ‘virtual life’ during the time of restrictions and quarantines.
