ABOUT ISAM LIVE:
An
all-encompassing visual onslaught - abstract narrative, subtle and bombastic -
ISAM Live uses projection mapping, generative/audio reactive real time and
pre-rendered elements combined with custom software to control the show. The
visual elements have been synched to the ‘ISAM’ album to create an interactive,
next level HD experience.
The
show features a stunning 25' x 14' x 8' multi-dimensional/ shape shifting 3-D
art installation that surrounds Tobin, enveloping both him and the audience in
a beyond 3-D experience..’ Situated within the installation, Tobin performs the
music as a navigator of a large craft through a surreal visual epic.
Creating
this incredible stage to match Tobin’s vision and music, Heather Shaw, CEO of
Vita Motus Design Studio, conceptualized this 3-D projection mapped visual
template and brought it to life as production and set designer. She has
experience designing award winning stages and environments for festivals and
exhibitions around the world, for such clients as American Idol, Coachella, The
Do LaB, Audi, and Lexus. Leading the
animation and interactive team for the ISAM Live project include directors
Vello Virkhaus & Matt Daly. V Squared team has an impressive visual
experience design resume that includes 50cent, Erick Morillo, Paul Oakenfold,
Marquee Las Vegas, Korn and Red Hot Chilli Peppers amongst others. Tech
Director and Executive Producer Alex Lazarus, who has been on the production
crew at Coachella Festival for eleven years, has worked with artists ranging
from Flying Lotus, Boys Noize, and Massive Attack, to Lady Gaga, Snoop Dogg and
Dr. Dre. Combining the ideas into a singular masterpiece, Stefano Novelli fabricated
the ISAM Live set.
The
spectacular mapped content follows the framework of the narrative carefully
storyboarded between Tobin and Vello Virkhaus, and then realized through
internationally published, award winning V Squared Labs in collaboration with
Leviathan. A collaborative feat between madmen, scientists and visionaries.
