Spinni all-stars
Always “alakoira” never “legendaarinen”: Aulis (Iikka L. - 9th district), Röökivisut (Ronal B.) and Bouldr (Antti K.) will bring the ancient tradition of homebrew visuals straight out of skellari. This gang has actively spread VJ sageness through generations as oral tradition and weird resolume compositions in the club's computers. Alumni VJs will drop a minimalist and intimate visual show to revive the euphoria from previous Spinni anniversaries like S20, S23 and S27.
