Abstract A cinematographic system is provided comprising three motion picture projectors and three projection screens for films on which the projections are made, each projector having a motor driven zoom lens and toning disc, means for synchronizing the operation of the three projectors, means for correlating the action of the zoom lens and toning disc at each projector and audience participation selection or control means acting on said zoom lens and toning disc correlating means through appropriate circuitry including a computer having a memory bank, whereby the scenes and sequences projected on the screens can be modified and mutations obtained in various respects by the audience and/or retrieved from the memory bank.
A cinematographic system comprising three driven motion picture projectors each of which is provided with a zoom lens, a rotatable toning disc in front of the zoom lens, each projector being adapted for the passage of a film therethrough the subject matter on which is projected onto a projection screen or screen areas, means for synchronizing the operation of the projectors, means for correlating movements of the zoom lenses with rotation of the toning discs, and audience participation selection and control means for causing proportional variations in the zoom lenses and toning discs for effecting mutations in the projections on the screens.
