Funny how with today's technology, nobody's ever tried to replicate this virtual reality style of scoreboard. I have to wonder why, it was very effective. Very intriguing voting, with Cyprus starting very well before fading to 9th, Sweden starting very badly before racing up to an eventual 3rd, and Portugal beaten out of an eventual top-5 placing. Very well deserved victory for Ireland (for once!) and a beautiful end to the show by NRK.

I think they just wanted to show off what they were able to do at this time. Just look at Iveta and Ivan from 2016. Nothing really functional, but they just wanted to show of their skills. Anyhow, I must say that NRK really did some great visual effects although it was 1996.

If you are interested in the thinking that went behind creating this virtual set the paper I wrote is still available on the EBU site at this address: tech.ebu.ch/docs/techreview/trev_268-hughes.pdf Despite pushing the available 1996 technology to its very limits - note that the score boards are not reflected in the floor, not because it wasn't possible in software, but because the Onyxs couldn't render the 3D image with an added reflection at TV frame rate - this was a huge mistake-free success. It would be difficult to overstate the courage it took the management of NRK to pursue this project to completion. A one hour long real-time production seen by tens, if not hundreds of millions, across the world using technology that was at its very limit is not for the fainthearted.

The person behind "The Voice" was another Brendan, btw -- a Brendan Graham, who also penned the 1994 Irish winner. And fact is, Ireland finished 2nd in 1997 (Marc Roberts - "Mysterious woman"). If the UK hadn't won that year, I think the contest might've been boycotted altogether... Ireland finished second in 1984, too .... with song "Terminal 3", penned by none other than Johnny Logan and performed by Linda Martin, who in turn would win the whole Euroditty in 1992, singing "Why me?", another song of Logan's. 😎🍺☘️🇮🇪
