Pronet @ ICE, 2026
We built a custom VR experience and connected it to a system of 2,000 LED balls, video playback, and gameplay data pulled straight out of the headset.
Ball curtain, ball wall and wall walls.
Scores, timing, and game states drive the LEDs and video behaviour in real time, so what you do in VR directly shapes the physical space around you.
Our thanks to @summercreativeagency for having us

@arcadia Dragonfly takes flight with Hive Media Players
When @arcadia ’s iconic Dragonfly returned to Glastonbury Festival this year, we were beyond excited to get involved! Towering above the crowds, the 13-metre-wide sculpture - built around a repurposed Sea King helicopter - was transformed into a living, breathing audiovisual creature, brought to life with #projection, #LED and #lighting in perfect harmony.
It was an honour to collaborate with the incredible teams at @arcadia@becausecucumber@video_illusions@astral.projekt@astralprojektstudio@_mirrad bringing this iconic show to life.

Shoutout to all the incredible women in technical production—pushing boundaries, leading teams, and proving (for the millionth time) that this industry isn’t just for the boys.
But let’s be honest - gender equality in tech production still has a long way to go. More representation, more opportunities, and fewer condescending comments.
Today isn’t just about celebrating, it’s about making sure the next generation of women in production don’t have to keep fighting the same battles. Let’s keep pushing.
Cucumber Productions, in collaboration with @video_illusions , are excited to announce that we have been shortlisted for TWO awards at this years @festivalsupplierawards
🏆 Best Bespoke / Unique Structure
🏆 Best Visual Spectacular
Working alongside Video Illusions on the @arcadia Dragonfly, was true innovation.
We are truly honoured to be part of such a unique project, and very proud to be a part of the creation.

In the run up to Christmas, we’d like to take a moment to appreciate the joy and wonder of @laplanduk
Production Wizards @wolflighting asked Cucumber to supply fully pixel mapped, wireless LED costumes to help add even more sparkle to an already incredible experience.
There is definitely magic in those woods!
