Video is the new light show in concerts. While seeing Phish’s lights is an unparallelled experience, a great video show is compelling in ways that lights cannot be. Jonsi, in his solo break from Sigur Ros, performed with one of the most innovative video concepts I’ve ever seen. Using six projectors on multiple screens combined with a stunning set, the effect was magical. The crowd was awed by the technical wizardry (literally oohing and aahing), as well as the extreme dynamics of the beautiful music. Jonsi’s voice is unique and the music he creates is perfectly suited for his ethereal tones; it would have been enough on its own, but combined with the awesome animation and projection mapping, the experience was unforgettable.
