„THIS IS THE TIME— SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY‟
We are transitioning from flat screen 2D vistas to the dimensional “cloud”.
For this purpose MetaZtron Vision is the missing link for the transition.
MISSION: Introduce vivid natural dimensional images from mobile to large 80 ft.
Z*Rama screens ---through an infrastructure we help support.
PROPOSAL FOR IRON MAIDEN (written in Feb. 2010)
The person who requested this proposal did not deliver it to Iron Maiden. We are searching for the right clients for MetaZtron Vision staging.
The Iron Maiden world is already holographic. You are story tellers – the rich
music perfect to sync with the MetaZtron Vision vivid images. Iron Maiden has a gallery of fabulous graphics that tune the primal gothic/ ancient
Egyptian symbols for 2012.
Divine providence: Iron Maiden pierces the veil with the in focus MetaZtron tool with dimensional depth images – creating an ecstatic temple
experience. Cameras capture the experience with those not fortunate enough to be in the actual presence.
I was not familiar with the Iron Maidens, except for when I heard their music
and a chord struck and I asked who was playing? So I dug in, visualizing songs such as Dream of Mirrors, imaging the MetaZtron Vision vistas, taking
the viewer through the door. Judas, My Guide. Moon Child lyrics. The auto
dimensional convergence. I also am waiting with fans for the new album.
Designing this framework took me back to when Kurt Vonnegut, my writer workshop teacher in Iowa City, asked me to help design a Broadway set for
Cat’s Cradle. We pondered the best way to create futuristic staging and backsets – this being the main impetuous for my inventing the holographic
MetaZtron Vision platform so that true immersion can be possible.
MODEL: CELINE DION CURVED SCREEN: Suggested for the Iron Maiden
Stage design is a streamlined version of Celine Dion’s big curved video backset (Cost $9 million) at Caesar’s Palace. The theater holds near 4000
people and is sold out every night. The 100 ft. curved screen is made of big squares of stacked LED modules. Camera close ups of the performer are
compromised because the square lines interfere with the televised images. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR5arVLvOcA&feature=fvwrel

IRON MAIDEN OMNIMAX TYPE SCREEN: The MetaZtron Vision (MZTV) rear
projected curved screen sizes are variable. Arena /auditorium /stadium /outdoor/ etc. screens range from 30 ft. wide to 100 ft. wide and 30 feet
high, with 180 degree (half dome) curved back set. 100 ft. wide dome screen: three motion picture bright merged projectors.
Images are amplified with saturated film like vivid colors with IMAX filmic
brightness, resolution, and color. The images automatically adjust to the dome and are holographic.
EXAMPLE OF STAGING: Great Egyptian buildings are created that can be
enhanced or changed instantly. The musicians can walk on the streets, interact with virtual creatures. The imagination is the limit. The HIVE
(holographic immersive virtual environments) provides a powerful avenue to share Iron Maiden stories.
The Iron Maiden musicians are located on the first level of the stage in front of a small screen that changes according to need: green screen to colors
that match the sets. Camera captures allow instant real time transformation of the performers to the big screen world. When the musician is immersed
in the virtual set as he plays, he is standing in front of the green screen and transformed into the large visual set – Ancient Egyptian street.
Dickinson moves on stage, amplified as he morphs into Eddie who
transforms to a slinking creature or a gun carrying soldier. Eddie goes through his major transformation that the audiences expect. Eddie’s head –
shades of red/ purple/ magenta —growing larger and larger: holographic until he is hovering over the stage. In the many metamorphoses of Eddie,
this time he is truly imbued, morphing toward heaven in beat with music.
Dickinson (virtual) prances down the stairs of the Egyptian set (rear
projected on the 90 ft. curved backset and slanted floor). The musicians often are in the scenes, the story (song) is performed with visual staging,
the musicians performing with their instruments and special effects images.
The MetaZ*Kit is included in the MZTV turnkey and programmed to synchronize and switch in real time by a well-trained Zeon VJ (operator), the
stage lights and special effects.
MZTV turnkey provides the tool set for the new canvas for the Iron Maiden artists, musicians, designers, and producer. The anaglyph glasses add to
special sequences, such as when the Ibus soars around Egyptian pyramids

and then out over the crowd. The bird is holographic without glasses. The
inexpensive anaglyph glasses separate colors for more depth in the images.
Audience Alert: Stay seated if you have an out of body experience -- induced by laser coherent pencil points that pierce time space continuum.
Timothy Leary states that the future psychedelic experience of
The 21st century will be the technological interface bringing the participant to ―oneness‖. Leary performed his visual sound
poetry in Iowa City. The gathering was at the 4H cattle barn (one of first shows Troyer produced). The sides of the barn were open
to the warm Iowa night lighting storm. Mother Blues sounds choreographed to the pulsing slide show lights and swirling paint
colors from the magic lantern, as the enthralled audience listened to Leary’s poetic stances.
SHOW DESIGNERS DREAM: In focus laser images are a designers dream. The 2010 Olympic show designers had custom made Laser TV projectors
built. The designers created great first time most talked about video effects with fields of flowers and whales floating. If laser projectors are used next
time based on the Troyer patents, there will be need for licensing for using the MZTV patented process (Canadian patent: Feb. 28, 2011).
TROYER PATENTED PROCESS: Uses expanded laser beam lines reflected off
a light valve. This is eye safe for audiences.
EYE SAFE IMAGES: Former laser video projectors were designed with the actual laser beams out of the lens, like in vector laser light shows. That is
why light show laser beams are carefully placed in the sky, never shining into audience’s eyes or onto performers.
EYE SAFE IMAGES: The MetaZtron images are full colored spectrum video modulated scanning expanded beam lines that are addressed to the
reflective light valve. Z depth has been spatially modulated into the laser beam providing a more holographic image that automatically adjusts to any
shaped surface (infinite depth of focus in curved (volume) space).
SIDE SCREENS: Two 20 - 30 ft. wide curved screens can be placed in the arena for huge crowds showing amplified real time stage shots of the Iron
Maidens or vivid special effect dimensional images. These screens are rear projected and have a short throw width (because of the infinite depth of
focus images). Anaglyph glasses can be worn to enhance the color shifts.

PROPOSAL FOR IRON MAIDEN TOUR (What dates)
When do is the MetaZtron platforms needed and for how long? What design layouts do you want?
We can deliver when needed and on budget We deliver at a rate comparable to the run of the mill tour costs. Is the first
phase Sonisphere and/ or Germany festivals?
Timing: Delivery 3 – 6 months after custom MetaZtron Vision platforms ordered and the short term lease is signed (funding). Z*Rama: One screen
(40 ft. wide); three screens: 80 -100 ft. Leases for over four months have better rates. MetaZtron canvas platform
can be ready for the 2011 summer tours.
Delivery is on time and on budget because of COTS (vendor parts already designed and assembled). The laser vendor states they are ready to deliver
high powered lasers. It takes a lot of laser power for large vivid images.
We use the 4K resolution (film quality) LCOS projector bases, combining two types of light valves for the big screen amplifications.
Smaller projectors will have one double light valve platform. They are assembled for smoke, fog, or special effects.
Transparency mesh canvases are used that respond to laser light, developed for laser light shows. In process: magnetic holographic
imaging screen that laser light stimulates (more dramatic and easier to handle than fog/ smoke/ water screens).
Balloon type canvas: above the crowd, flown with a remote controlled
drone (if so wished).
Sonar Sound Walls: we have sonar surround sound walls that provide
true dimensional sound and can be tested for the stadium/ venues. The musicians would need to approve the sonar amplified sounds (sonar
material developed at Iowa State University for navy). My attorney, John Shors has installed sonar speakers in the walls of his home (wow factor).
Shors supports the MetaZtron convergence for an immersive stadium/venue experience. The human body becomes a transducer with
sonar sound surrounding.
We offer a well-tested integrated MetaZtron Platform. We do not want a last
minute U2 moment meaning there is not interactivity-- U2 late 80’s first Jumbletron show. The well packaged simple MetaZ*Kit show control
software is programmed in conjunction with the talented Iron Maiden teams.
Your hand maiden is at your service to help present next world phenomena.

http://www.slideshare.net/metatroy/metaztron-holographic-z-depth-factor View to understand how this process works. See the engineer look into the
lens, the eyes not harmed.
WOW factor: MetaZtron Vision (MZTV) takes live performances to a new
plateau. Iron Maiden can use certain specialized effects for the first time.
Images (all feeds) are transformed to dimensional vivid images, Iron Maiden can choose to use 4K high resolution projection. These images when camera
captured look great on TV shows and for video streaming, etc. All other displays/ projectors/ imagers need flat screens to deliver 3D in real time.
MetaZtron Vision platforms are user friendly with fast set up time and low
maintenance tech support. Costs are cut by 50%. Only MZTV delivers dimensional images in real time in curved space.
Notice today in Award Shows the video back set imaging (stacked LED or
DLP) is often just landscapes, because other more complex imaging would not be vivid for the audiences. MZTV amplification, because of the
collimation/coherence Z depth factor, keeps the original image resolution.
Arc lamp image amplification muddles the image so it is not as vivid.

ADVANTAGES COMPARED TO OTHER DISPLAYS
Today World Wide: there are no comparable installations
The Metropolitan Opera is interested in such a set up for real time scene changes
MetaZtron Vision provides a new staging attributes for venues and music tours.
Sets, Scenery, Graphics designs, worlds---
Art work is exemplified on the high resolution vivid screens
The projection system is far superior to what has been used so far in music tours
Laser projection has more vivid colors than any other display (twice the color spectrum)
MetaZtron amplifies the images with high resolution and vivid color.
Close up camera captured images of the performer have phenomenal amplification.
Special art: very finely drawn images will be sharp and in focus.
Special effects way beyond light shows, laser show or anything else seen so far.
Automatically adjusts camera capture or other video feed to a curved screen.
Provides instant depth (dimensional) to any images (without manipulation).
Best video images available – more like nature
Attributes create fabulous dimensional staging and sets.
The infinite sharpness of the laser beams creates holographic images,
(Such as performer’s face projected on fog – etc.)
Very little technician help needed, thus saving money in this area.
Easy setup: Very little power --- air cooled – no water
Rental Costs: about the same as regular high end arc lamp projectors.
Less costly than providing high resolution LED huge screens (many technician hours).
MZTV provides many new attributes not provided by other displays.
SUGGESTED DEAL
Lease order with down payment.
Design meetings set and implementation time line.
The attributes desired should be listed in the lease agreement.
Special deals set up with vendors for special support and promotion
Need to discuss: MetaZtron Turnkey platforms; Screens, Show control software, Sonar sound
NOTE: These are general suggestions and can be changed to meet the design desires of client.
We are consultants with a virtual network of experts. Please tell us how we can help -- what you need and we will provide the MetaZtron platform design and cost quote. We are a support team for your experts. We bring a new tool kit for your designers. Your hand maiden is at your service to help present the next world phenomena - extravaganza.

MZTV ATTRIBUTES COMPARED TO OTHER MEDIA
ARC LAMP PROJECTORS LIMITS COMPARED TO MZTV LASER TV Colors and brightness washed out on big screens --- dull Limited color spectrum (Arc lamps provide about ½ color spectrum Laser TV produces) Not bright: the whole screen is flooded. Light is ambient so not directed (spreads) Arc lamp projectors need to double up (on top of other) for bright tour screens. (Layered on top of each other on the screen for more brightness). Costly: merging of arc lamp projectors takes more costly technician time. Many more hours of costly intensive technician hours needed. GREEN: Arc lamps are not green. They take a lot of power. Arc lamps burn out quickly. Need flat screens for amplifications of performer’s image. Camera feeds do not automatically adjust to curved space Images not in focus on every level (holographic) on smoke or water screens (etc.) Arc lamp projectors do not show 3D in focus on curved screens Not the picture quality of laser images --- not good contrast of blacks Very limited special effects—that is why laser light shows are used for big arenas LED SCREENS: Limited in full color spectrum Not motion picture quality (need to limit images to more of a landscape world) Big squares in the image with LED stacks Great art would not be effective on these screens Big squares interfere with quality of close ups when captured by TV or film content Very costly for big screens and technologist intensive to set up and tear down MetaZtron Vision is an Amplifier of the Image captured by sensors Easy set up for high end 4K resolution images Best images – colors, resolution, contrast, no artifacts, brightness Film like color saturation and motion picture brightness Good blacks so that star fields and intricate drawings can be shown Vehicle for expanded psychedelic colored worlds—way beyond any light show Lasers keep coherence and pencil sharp points to the screen, so no degradation The images have infinite sharp attribute so have depth in curved space The hologram needs to be rethought--- using the attributes of MZTV MZTV is always in focus on any irregular shape – so great for domes or balloons MZTV has actual colors from nature (more than film) honey, magenta, deep purples Submitted by Diane Troyer February 18, 2010

SOME EMAILS: ROBERT SOFIA was partner with METATRON LLC (Delaware) a partnership between
Metatron Inc. (Troyer’s California company –1992- 2002) and the GRIFFIN GROUP.
Diane,----- The sooner you can go into production, the sooner I can lease your projectors. Then I can start taking advantage of your projectors capabilities to solve some of my production problems, and give our creative minds a new tool to work with to create new vistas. On a recent remote production at SeaWorld in Orlando with Wheel of Fortune, a laser projector would have been the perfect tool to use to project on two air balloons that we used on the set, as well as onto the two fountains in the background. The solution we came up with was less then ideal, and far more money then I wanted to spend. When dealing with the Art Department and our technicians, there were many times I wished I had the laser technology available to me. Bob Sofia Coordinating Producer; Technical Supervisor --Wheel of Fortune/Jeopardy! (310) 244-5946; off. (310) 729-6001; cell. (310) 244-0325 From: Doron Carmi: Dear Diane, It was worth to wait. Your laser projector is great. As you know
our company specialized in projection on clouds (as you can see on our web page
www.cloudscreen.eu . We will be very interesting by your laser projection if it allows to cast
images on clouds. The average distance to clouds is about 1500 to 3000 feet. Do you think this
projector can reach such distances?

DOME ON THE ROCK – ISRAEL From: Yitzhaq Hayut-man [email protected] Date: Wed, Dec 16, 2009 Friend; The general director of the Israel Museum is James Snyder, former head of the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in NYC. The Dome is designed by Fredrick Kiesler. It is considered an architectural masterpiece. It is surrounded by water and sprinkling mist (as done, for example, in Frances Futuroscope) should be straightforward. Roitman really wants a holographic projection over the Dome of the Rock. Can you send information about MetaZtron? Yitzhaq Hayut-man [email protected]
