Live Visuals

Do it LIVE!

We specialize in live analog visuals that can’t be replicated with pre-packaged video loops. Whether we’re hitting the beat with intensity or dialing back into ambient reprieves, the magic happens in the moment. Live visuals let us respond, evolve, and surprise—making each show unique and unforgettable.

We regularly work with Sanctum Chicago to elevate performances into a full sensory experience. Be on the lookout on our Instagram for the next show!

Why Videowaste?

We are rooted in Chicago’s vibrant visual arts community, with a mission that combines creativity and sustainability. We rescue and restore video gear once destined for landfills, giving it new purpose through immersive installations and live visuals.

As a full-service collective, we handle everything from concept and design to build, execution, and tear-down, making the process seamless for our clients. By blending analog CRT aesthetics with modern digital tools, we deliver unforgettable experiences that stand out in Chicago’s cultural and event landscape.

By collaborating closely with musicians, creative directors, and performance artists, we ensure your visual world feels cohesive across the stage, promotional materials, and tour branding.
