Lighting build up and operation
Waking Life is a midsummer festival, a landcare project, and a year-round dojo for creation, experimentation and play.
In 2025, I was part of the build-up team for the Praia stage, designed by Julian Lietz. During the festival I had two operating shifts.
In 2026, Julian invited Pablo Garduño Takenaga and I to create custom fixtures for Praia.
We were both also in charge of programming and operating the stage during the festival.
Working at Waking Life is a beautiful experience. The music, being outdoors 24/7, the creative energy, mastering the art of driving a cherry picker, doing what I love surrounded by other people who are doing what they love.
