Abstract: An audio performance system for use during an event including a shipping container containing at least a first electroacoustic device. A lifting device forms a first portion of the shipping container, the lifting device configured to movably secure the first electroacoustic device between a first position for transport of the container and a second position for the event. A second portion of the shipping container is configured to be manually removable. A third portion of the shipping container is configured to positionably secure a second electroacoustic device for the event.

Abstract: A suspended audio performance system including a first electroacoustic device and a first base structure secured to the first electroacoustic device. The first base structure is configured to be suspended between a first suspended position and a second suspended position.

Abstract: A method of assembling a portable support structure is disclosed. The method includes positioning a first platform member, then securing a first support member to the first platform member, and then securing a second platform member to the first platform member to form a continuous platform surface. The method includes positioning a plurality of platform members to form a first continuous platform surface, then securing a support member to at least one of the plurality of platform members. The method includes forming a continuous surface from a plurality of platform members, the plurality of platform members including one or more female connectors, aligning one or more male connectors with the one or more female connectors, and engaging the one or more male connectors with the one or more female connectors.

Abstract: An assembled portable structure having a plurality of platform members arranged to form a continuous surface. The platform members are attached to each other along one or more surfaces and are capable of being disassembled into smaller components. A plurality of primary support members are detachably engaged to at least a portion of the plurality of the platform members. A plurality of secondary support members are detachably engaged to at least one primary support member of the plurality of the primary support members and at least one of the platform members of the plurality of platform members. The number of primary support members detachably engaged to at least a portion of the plurality of the platform members is less than four for each platform member.

Abstract: A portable support structure including a platform member having a primary platform connector and a secondary platform connector. The primary platform connector is configured to receive a primary support connector. The secondary platform connector is configured to receive a secondary support connector. The support structure also includes a primary support member including the primary support connector and a hook member. In addition, the support structure includes a secondary support member having a first end and a second end. The first end is detachably engaged with the secondary platform connector and the second end is in locking engagement with the hook member. The primary support connector includes structures that engage the primary platform connector and rotationally position the primary support member. The hook member includes a hook portion that engages and prevents the secondary support member disengaging upon a rotation of the secondary support member.
