7th International Symposium on Fireworks

6-10th October 2003, Valencia, Spain

I presented a paper entitled Pyromusicals 101 - 11 Seasons Reporting on the Montreal International Fireworks Competition at this symposium. Here's the abstract:

The Art of the Pyromusical - 11 Seasons Reporting on the Montreal International Fireworks Competition

ABSTRACT

The witnessing of 101 pyromusicals at the largest pyromusical competition in the world has given the author an almost unique insight into the development of the pyromusical art over the past ten year. The evolution of the author's involvement in reporting on the Montreal competition, from simple USENET posts to the current website, as well as details on the methods used to compile the reports is presented. Finally, observations on the development of the pyromusical art over the past decade and some thoughts on what it takes to present an award winning display.
