The current issue of CR features The Annual, showcasing the best work of the past year. Nine projects have been chosen for our Best in Book section, the ultimate accolade. We are featuring each of them in a series of posts with additional content to further explain each project. In this post, see how Moment Factory created an interactive extravaganza for Nine Inch Nails' last tour

Montreal-based Moment Factory created this ‘interactive environ­ment’ for rock band Nine Inch Nails’ 2008 Lights in the Sky tour. The installation allowed the band to interact with the video and lights while performing, with the visuals reacting to their positions, movements and sound.

Moment Factory worked with the band to develop different interactive effects and styles for each song. This how it was done clip explains more:

And here's some footage fo the show:

I was lucky enough to see a similiar, but scaled-down, version of this at Soundwave festival in Melbourne recently.

It was amazing! I couldn't walk away.

I saw the Oklahoma City show in August. It was amazing. The lights and other visualizations were something completely new and unexpected. And I thought NIN had an impressive light show for 'Beside You In Time.' The Lights in the Sky tour was completely appreciated.
