Extra-cinematic Animation

Today's readings on Extra-cinematic Animation reminded me of a news story I saw on the Vivid Sydney Festival, in which light, sound and audience participation were melded together:


The official webpage is here: http://www.vividsydney.com/

The thing that I mostly think about when watching this sort of thing is the magic and spectacle of a performance, the only thing of which is comparable is a fireworks production.

I was also thinking about band performances such as Gorillaz and Vocaloid where animated characters hold concerts, tying this back to my main field of anime, as Vocaloid is very popular in Japanese animation.
