“Imagine putting your head inside a youtube video…”

The Custard Factory is set to host video displays of Pink Floyd at The Dome using a projector made by LM Productions – who specialise in making equipment for ‘large scale dome projections, lasers and inflatable venues’.

Self proclaimed as “Birmingham’s answer to Montreal’s SATosphère“, The Dome Club – 360° Dome display, began in early 2013 at Think Tank at Millennium Point. Now they are bringing their technology and creative work to The Custard Factory and they invite everyone to experience “something a little different.”

Mario Di Maggio, founder of the Dome Club, started out working with dome displays as a result of his experience from working in Planetariums. He’s acted as a consultant on large projects in the past, such as the Macao Science Centre Planetarium in China from 2003 till 2008, and a little closer to home at the Peter Harrison Planetarium during 2006 at Greenwich in London.

Dome Club it will be projecting Pink Floyd’s; Wish You Were Here, Dark Side of The Moon and The Wall. Each show will be displayed on different dates so follow the link here to find what’s playing, and when. Then click on over to here to book your place.

Their current exhibition showcases the work of Peru born artist Janet Mclelland, whose art portrays her upbringing and views of daily life, in search for a representation of motherhood.

On 16 December, Gecko are inviting visitors to the gallery to celebrate Janet’s work over some festive refreshments, from 6pm – 8pm.

The exhibition runs until 30 December and is open Monday – Saturday from 10am – 6pm. For regular updates take a look at their Facebook page.

Aiming to promote the value of singing in education, teaching through rhymes, music and performance poetry, the class will tackle times table through tunes.

Happy 20th Birthday to Glen Howells Architects. They’ve sent us this nice little book filled with photographs from their many projects over the years, including a few familiar buildings from Birmingham’s iconic skyline, such as the Rotunda, The Custard Factory, and Eleven Brindley Place.
