Alpheratz Projection Kit
Tax included where applicable. Delivery, rigging and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
ELVARNIXO Shaping — light is made at the last metre
Windows where there are none, shafts of invented sun, graphics on cyc walls — the Alpheratz makes scenery out of optics, and packs it into a case that believes in call times.
A parabolic is a precision instrument pretending to be an umbrella: sixteen or twenty-four ribs holding a true curve, a focusing rod that glides and locks, and fabrics whose silver keeps its colour after the two-hundredth assembly. Ours are hand-finished, serialised, and repairable rib by rib.
Design & Craft
- Framing blades cut like a good enlarger easel
- Frames open in seconds and forgive the two-hundredth assembly
- Projection optics that hold an edge wide open
- Steel gobos seat with register — patterns repeat
- Textiles woven and graded for neutral colour after years of vans

Care
Brush textiles dry, never wash silver fabrics, and let diffusion dry before rolling. Store parabolics on the rod, ribs relaxed. Small tears are repairable — send photographs to the concierge and parts ship from Prague.
Questions, Answered
Can textiles be replaced?
Every panel, rib and diffusion layer is a stocked part for fifteen years. Modifiers should retire from fashion, not from failure.
Grids included?
Where the listing says so; otherwise they are options. Grid angles are true to label — measured, not rounded.
