Watch: The New Interactive Arcade Fire Video for "We Used to Wait"


“There’s a weird rush of conflicted nostalgia that most of us feel when we look up our childhood homes on Google Street View, and Arcade Fire’s new video for “We Used to Wait” turns that feeling into a pretty powerful emotional experience.

“Video” is probably actually the wrong term here. Arcade Fire teamed up with Chris Milk to create this personalized experience that opens up tons of windows on your desktop and uses your own address to create a rush of images that’ll be unique to whoever ends up watching. Check it out here, via Stereogum.

The video will only work if you’ve got a strong Internet connection, and it doesn’t play on Firefox. To watch it, you’ll need a compatible browser (it’s designed for Google Chrome, but Safari works too), and there’s at least a decent chance you’ll get a crash or two while you watch. But once everything is working right, it’s a pretty ingenious piece of work that could well send you reeling down some old memory-holes.” from pitchfork
