The Peekers present>>> Thee Oh Sees, Sic Alps & Ty Segall (Autumnal Equinox)
In celebration of the season (Autumnal Equinox) and in the event of disruptive telecommunications breakdowns, minicine? host LIVE, from San Francisco, Thee Oh Sees, Sic Alps (via Cincinnati), and Ty Segall to Shreveport… all organized by and presented with love from the PEEKERS>>> But this event is way, way more… Including installations by Morgan Thomas, and a drawing experiment by Jon Mackey, Jen Wasson, Christy Herren and Allison West.
It is important that: “One effect of equinoctial periods is the temporary disruption of communications satellites. For all geostationary satellites, there are a few days near the equinox when the sun goes directly behind the satellite relative to Earth (ie, within the beamwidth of the groundstation antenna) for a short period each day. The Sun’s immense power and broad radiation spectrum overload the Earth station’s reception circuits with noise and, depending on antenna size and other factors, temporarily disrupt or degrade the circuit. The duration of those effects varies but can range from a few minutes to an hour. (For a given frequency band, a larger antenna has a narrower beamwidth, hence experience shorter duration “Sun outage” windows).”
