Re: [newmellotrongroup] OT- Laserium 1975 at The Toronto Planetarium

Pretty sure Chicago has (or had) one also.
A lifelong friend worked for them in Illinois.
We were messing with lasers in the early 70’s, with smoke for contrast.
Wonderful devices, in my opinion.

In LA, they had a variety of Laserium shows running through the years up at Griffith Observatory. The company that created it was in the San Fernando Valley. Still very trippy cool stuff.

  I remember this Laserium show like it was yesterday. Larry Fast was in the audience and talked for a few minutes about his Synergy album just released.

  Neptune - Holst, Tank - ELP, Legacy - Larry Fast - Synergy, The Blue Danube - Strauss, Timesteps - Clockwork Orange theme - Walter Carlos, Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun - Pink Floyd, Pepper Box - The Peppers, Abaddon's Bolero - ELP, Gimme Shelter - The Stones, Echoes - Pink Floyd, Hoedown - ELP.
