The Light Surgeons




The Light Surgeons is a collective of designers, film makers and musicians, best known for their pioneering design of visual displays at clubs, commercial events, music tours & exhibitions. They have been at the cutting edge of multimedia sound and light installations, working across a range of media such as video, 16mm film, photography, print based design, music & spoken narrative. The Surgeons have provided creative production and toured internationally with live music acts such as the Propellerheads, Cornershop, DJ Food and Unkle and have worked with many other ground breaking independent record labels and artists. Their experiments in celluloid & digital formats have also lead to the production of promo videos, titles for broadcast, art based installations, exhibition design and live performances at many international film and new media festivals.

Fusing together digital video with stills photography, music and spoken word, they create their own form of exploded documentary that unites dance culture with film and theatre. They have developed and refined a wholly original live performance which entertains, inspires and provokes its audiences into thinking about our social and political environment.


I like the use of all the different types of multimedia... an idea which I could maybe incorporate into my work... use of sound...photosgraphy...film....narrative....
