MYRIAD notes (barbican)

transcribed from ipod touch notes

opener was brother may with mica levi and two other collabers. very akin to their style. quite avant-garde trap rap with moments of improvisation in between (poetry [YEA? yeah.] and intense rattling). was really nice.

MYRIAD kicked off like i expected it to be by the setlist but the visual display was utterly incredible. eli, aaron, kelly and most importantly daniel were highlighted perfectly with spotlights and strobes, especially during their cusp solos. daniel chimed in with after-song talk, and he thanked us a lot :D

the visuals (and sculptures), by nate boyce, fit really well.

- age of had visuals from the trailer

- raycats had sky blue atmospheric graffiti looking visuals, wiggly lines

- toys 2 had the camera pan around the 'proletarian [? look up at home' character in the same sky blue setting

- babylon had visuals showing a big sculpture in the middle of a worn out warm city

- manifold had glitchy visuals on a yellow background. nice contrast

- we'll take it had the salesman being flung around on a car in the abyss mixed in with varying closeup shots. very cool

- the station had ?? can't remember :(

- love in the time of lexapro had a lot of visuals but i can't remember them either

- warning had glowy yellow-y visuals i think, strobe-y fittingly

- same had the thrash rat thrashing around in darkness and disintegrating and turning to dust

- black snow had the cowgirl dancers from the music video in formation ON AND DOWN FROM THE STAGE, and a spinning 3d model of puppet's head in chains

- last known image of a song had b&w staticky lines glitching around, similar to garden of delete live visuals

- never ending happening had visuals from the myriad trailer (nine squares)

[I CLAPPED REALLY LOUDLY AND HOLLERED A LOT]

- child of rage ???

- chrome country had bathroom sink scene

i waved goodbye and clapped just as loud. thank you so much opn
