No, it has nothing to do with Joseph Levy (and brothers) or Edward Kook and their company.

Does this count? View attachment 23351(or is this a display of century.....?)
Let's see if you have our kind of answer!Oh this is my kind of question!
I ride 100 miles on my bicycle! .... are we talking about bicylces?Century implies "100" of something...
Note that the Broadway standard was 5x20: Original Light Palette, Obsession, Obs2
This is actually the answer I was looking for. Century Panel, Century Display, Century Array--all the same thing. And it goes back one more generation beyond the Virtuoso to the Artisan.I've also used Century Panels, which is a physical channel selection tool on the 676 (and the Virtuoso, but I have never used a Virt)
Why does the phrase "I've obfuscated bigger shows than this" come to mind? Please expound on the six degrees of separation thing. Is it my imagination, or did Strand not make a version of the new Light Palette VL that had a Century Display?Well, in a round about, six degrees of separation kind of way, it does.
Or more specifically , the origin of the century display, and the results of Kook and Levy's work have converged to exist in the same current entity.
(Hope this is vague enough to obfuscate the answer, but make the connection for those that know!)
As most things do. Though that was a bit before me, so I'll take this as a win.And it goes back beyond the Virtuoso to the Artisan.
I find the 676's century panel to be a very quick way of dealing with fixture selection.Upper left panel. While it may seem today to be an odd way of selecting fixtures, remember this was before touchscreens, and with a skilled operator, was actually faster than typing in numbers.
Vari-Lite Artisan, then Artisan plus, then Virtuoso, then Virtuoso DX2, then V676 all had century panels. VL was acquired by Genlyte in 2004.Why does the phrase "I've obfuscated bigger shows than this" come to mind? Please expound on the six degrees of separation thing.
