Execution
With 2Days Beat, an unprecedented music event, producer Clams Casino and hip-hop artist Vic Mensa used HP technology to create a track and music video live on YouTube. And we invited the whole world to help them write it. Over two days, viewers could interact with them and affect the creative process, simply by leaving a comment. Not only did the comments affect everything about the track, they also became the art for the set and the visuals for a music video that we filmed in real-time during the event.
