Pink Floyd The Massed Gadgets of Auximenies 1969, Fine Art Print Signed by Aubrey Powell/Hipgnosis

An iconic poster designed by Hipgnosis, Aubrey Powell and Storm Thorgerson, for one of Pink Floyd’s most experimental concerts The Man and the Journey, held at the Royal Festival Hall London on 14 April 1969. This concept show allowed the audience to truly appreciate the live surround sound system, the Azimuth Co-Ordinator, first used by Pink Floyd.

1of 5 only, signed as an Artist’s Proof by the artist/photographer Aubrey Powell/Hipgnosis, quoted below:

"This was the first surrealist poster design by Hipgnosis studio for Pink Floyd’s 1969 tour after we had created the album cover Saucerful of Secrets. The shows were entitled The Massed Gadgets of Auximenies, More Furious Madness from Pink Floyd. Introducing The Azimuth Co-Ordinator.”

The Azimuth Co-Ordinator was a quadrophonic control mechanism operated by joy sticks sending sound on a 360 degree journey around an auditorium. The Pink Floyd used this to good effect and it paved the way for the next thirty years in creating their own unique style of Electric Theatre.”

Unframed 79 x 54 cm

Donated by: Aubrey Powell/Hipgnosis
