OH EM GEE. Grab on to your panties because we are about to embark on a musical journey thanks to the as-per-usual radness of Arcade Fire’s new interactive Video Just A Reflektor . Remember when they launched The Wilderness Downtown? (the one where they used Chrome and pop-ups), well this one is 10X better.

Ok, I won’t keep babbling. I will let you experience this on your own.

Things you’ll need:

– A smartphone
– Chrome on your computer (make sure to not have 1000 tabs open so it runs smoothly)

Once you have those, head over here: Just A Reflektor, and follow the instructions on screen. If it doesn’t run smoothly the first time, just refresh the page and try again (like a gazillion people are watching it right now).

When you’re done, let me know what you think? Was it too much? Was it awesome? I personally think it’s kind of brilliant; the music, the graphics, the effects, the interaction, so good! Plus, you gotta give them credit for making us wave our phones in front of the computer like total geeks that have no fucks to give. So yeah, let me know what you think and enjoy!

PS. If you can turn off the light in your room, that’s even better. Oh! and if you don’t have a smartphone, that’s fine, you can use your computers mouse.

PSS. If you want geek out, visit their technology page and read all about the effects.
