3746 videos from 73 countries – launched April 2nd 2012

Virtual Choir 3, ‘Water Night’, received 3746 videos from 73 countries around the world and launched on April 2nd 2012 at a live event at Lincoln Center, webcast on Lincoln Center Website, and revealed online.

The directors, Cake, developed creative solutions for this volume of material to a brief, working closely together with Eric to develop the final film inspired by the Virtual Choir community and the text from Water Night by Octavio Paz:

If you open your eyes, night opens doors of musk, the secret kingdom of the water opens flowing from the centre of the night. And if you close your eyes, a river, a silent and beautiful current, fills you from within, flows forward, forward, darkens you: night brings its wetness to beaches in your soul.

Following the online reveal, VC3 will be mastered for bespoke projections and audio-visual installations at venues across the world with HD video and surround sound to create an immersive and visceral audience experience.

Commemorating the Titanic’s 100th anniversary

On the evening of April 14th, the VC3 will be seen and heard in Titanic Belfast, Northern Ireland’s iconic new Visitor Centre dedicated to the birthplace of the Titanic.

Following the celebrations around the opening of the new building and marking 100 years since the loss of Titanic, the projection of the Virtual Choir 3 in the atrium of Titanic Belfast will provide a moment of contemplation for the lost souls.
