Case Study

SIGUR ROS' WORLD TOUR 2016

Treatment used photogrammetry and real-time data integration to push the boundaries of what can be done with live visuals for the 2016 Sigur Rós tour.

Treatment worked to break new ground with the 2016 Sigur Rós tour. A combination of techniques, including photogrammetry of 3D scenes and real-time integration of live data taken during the show, resulted in a stunning visual arrangement.

James F. Thompson of Loud and Quiet summed it up as such: "It’s this dynamism that makes things work so well tonight, coupled with a jaw-dropping stage show that takes in LED lights, coordinated screens, CGI and all manner of sleight-of-hand physical trickery. Screens are moved upwards and downwards to create the illusion of shifting skies, landscapes and depths. At one point we see Hólm’s hand playing bass on screen in real-time, only rendered out of laser-like motion capture."
