The Tigers don't have a lot of time to write about this to the fullest extent of its awesomeness. But we wanted you to hear about this right away!
Not only can you watch the new Arcade Fire video for "We Used to Wait", you can INTERACT WITH IT!
Here's more about the experimental project at Mashable.com:
"Basically, you surf over to “The Wilderness Downtown” page using Google Chrome (don’t use Safari, the program will murder your browser), and type in the address of your childhood home when prompted. If Google Maps has enough footage of home sweet home, you’ll be pulled into a multi-browser movie of your own making.
The experience of watching this highly personalized video is not easily described, but basically the story of childhood ending as time rapidly slips away becomes your own as trees shoot up out of nowhere on your old street, culminating in an opportunity to write a letter to a younger you. Check it out when you have a moment to really watch the whole thing, sans any other browsers."
We've both played around using our respective home towns, but we can't wait to see each other's customizable videos tonight!
