WATCH, SHOOT & SHARE VIVID LIVE ON YOUTUBE!

For whatever reason you can’t physically be at Vivid LIVE, you can watch Vivid LIVE on youtube in a brand new interactive front row music experience! Whether tickets are sold out, you’re out of town, you’re out of cash and out of luck (and perhaps your life sucks just a little bit), we’ve got your back! We’ve made sure you won’t miss out on some of our sold out and highly sought after shows.

Go watch, shoot and share photos of URBANSCREEN’s Lighting the Sails and three of our biggest events. With The Temper Trap (SOLD OUT), Imogen Heap (SOLD OUT) and Amon Tobin (SOLD OUT) you have the choice of the best seats in the whole of the Opera House – and you’ll be in control of how you view it. You can pan, zoom, apply lens filters and immediately share with your mates through Twitter, Facebook and Google+.

It’s some pimped out hi-tech stuff, but all too easy for you to watch from wherever you are, to shoot whichever frame you’d like and to share with whomever you damn well please. Watch at:

All y’all concerts streaming on the regular ain’t got nuthin’ on this. Just saying.

Now, for the logistics.

THE STREAMING SCHEDULE:

Friday 25 May – Lighting the Sails by URBANSCREEN 6pm – 12pm AEST
As the centrepiece to Vivid Sydney, each year a Vivid LIVE artist is invited to transform the sails of Sydney Opera House with digital mapping technology. In 2012, Vivid LIVE has commissioned multi-award winning German design collective, URBANSCREEN to create a new artwork that will explore both the iconic sculptural form of Sydney Opera House, as well as its place as a home for music, dance and drama.

Tuesday 29 May – Imogen Heap – 6pm – 7pm AEST
As part of her visit for the 2012 APRA Song Summit, Imogen Heap will perform an intimate recital for Vivid LIVE in the northern foyer of Sydney Opera House Concert Hall. Set to a spectacular harbour backdrop at dusk, Heap will perform a  series of stripped back renditions of songs from her globetrotting, in-progress album – 6 songs in 60 minutes.

Thursday 31 May – The Temper Trap – 9.50pm – 11pm AEST
After a near-two-year absence from Sydney stages, The Temper Trap will perform for  Vivid LIVE in the Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House in support of their highly anticipated self-titled second album. Having built a significant following over the past four years across Europe, UK and North America, the band’s long absence resulted in feverish excitement and expectation around the new album. The Temper Trap is the follow up to 2009’s critically-acclaimed platinum-selling debut Conditions and was recorded at the famed Sound Factory in Los Angeles, with producer Tony Hoffer, ( Beck, M83, Phoenix). The Temper Trap is out now through Liberation.

Saturday 2 June – Amon Tobin Live Beyond 3D ISAM – 9pm AEST
Following sold out tours across Europe and North America, Amon Tobin’saudiovisual spectacle ISAM Live comes to Sydney Opera House – a landmark development in concert presentation. Taking projection mapping, electronic performance and technological syncopation into more immersive territory, Amon Tobin’s reputation as an innovative artist has long been recognised by critics and peers alike; with ISAM Live, he has finally captured the imagination of the broader public worldwide.

Got that? So see you there!
