My
Seagrape Studios co-designer and longtime audio friend, Rob Jones
contacted me to design and install the acoustical treatments for
The School Of The Art Institute's Gene
Siskel Film Center projection room. Film guru James
Bond of Full Aperture Systems did the systems design and equipment
installation for what is said to be one of the finest film viewing
experiences in the country. Ron Cannon, and Alex Villenchik brought
my acoustic design into reality. Thanks guys!
That's
right Bunky, those are vintage 1950's Simplex projectors that
have now been fully modernized to today's standards. The best
of old and new for your film viewing pleasure. I needed to tame
down the Simplex's operating noise as part of my plan.
So
to quiet down those beautiful and rare Simplex's I made use of
a combination of thick acoustic fabric, and carefully placed acoustic
absorbtion panels. Colors to compliment the projectors of course!
