Professional moving head operator here: It’s simple, but a bit technical: over time, the internal cables wind around the motor hub. So they need a short break to unwind, and then they’re ready to be used again 🤓

they are from the 90s so they need rewinding

They are just having fun dancing during their break!

Lots of people have pointed to the reasons they're spinning, but the reason the one in front might not be is because its prepped for a cue coming up. In a show I'm working on right now, I have a handful of cues like that, where a group of lights are running an effect despite being off, but one of them has to stop the effect because its being used for something different in an upcoming cue.

Once you tell a light to do something over DMX, it won't stop until told to stop. The LD probably forgot to add that command.

This unit no limit?

It’s clearly a pre programmed effect running but the light output is switched off for another or delayed effect

Are they pixmob invisible moving head infrared transmitters, used to turn on the wristbands in audience

I saw a show last week with a half dozen mirror balls. The motors were cued on during damn near every number despite only being used once…

that light that's not moving is obviously the center light of an odd number, and the programmer is using a GrandMA console.

They must have either panned the lights loads or they just have no pan limit

Like a bulldozer if they go to many rotations in one direction they will unscrew themselves!

It’s called moving in black basically preloading the pan and tilt movements so the effect looks more seamless

These fixtures are like excavators and tanks. 14 rotations to one side and they will unscrew. That's why they are rotating back, to screw again

Bryan Lankston :
As someone who does lighting work, I often start running an effect on fixtures that are off so that when I bring them up during the song they are already moving. As for the one not moving… perhaps they have it off on purpose so that they bring up even groups of fixtures. I sometimes will park a light off for symmetry purposes even though it’s on the rig.

kieran shorrock :
the light will still be programmed to move even with the leds off l to save time in the long run

Sometimes they are MIB (moving in black) for a cue coming up, or it’s possible someone forgot to stomp the effect from a cue before if the console is tracking
