Creators Project: Arcade Fire & Chris Milk’s "Summer Into Dust" documentary

As a part of The Creators Project, the Arcade Fire teamed with director Chris Milk for a unique installation based around the track “Wake Up” during their recent Coachella gig. The video below outlines every intricate detail, the gist is that Milk was able to use the LEDs and IR transmitters of beach balls handed out to the crowd to paint various pictures and patterns. The end result was a landmark in performer-audience interaction.
Despite Coachella wrapping up back in April, the project isn’t quite over yet. For those lucky enough to have snagged/violently stolen one of those balls, head here on a regular basis to see updates on sharing/uploading photos, videos, and stories.
