"Phish's Visual Spectacle: Inside the Sphere Residency"
Phish's four-night residency at Las Vegas' Sphere features unique, non-repeating performances with a focus on enhancing the music through the venue's massive LED screen. The show's co-creative directors aimed to support Phish's musicality while creating flexible visualizations that could adapt to the band's improvisations. The team used a mix of pre-rendered and real-time content, including Unreal Engine and Notch software, to create immersive and trippy visuals. The Sphere's unique environment presented creative challenges, but the team's advice for future events there is simple: "Try stuff." Fans can livestream the remaining performances, and SiriusXM is broadcasting each show the following day.
