Amon Tobin ISAM was an immersive audio visual show that made a huge imprint on the world of electronic music and visual arts. The groundbreaking 3D animation, real time computer graphics and 3D projection mapping pushed the 4D medium to new levels. The show started with an mysterious mechanical structure coming to life. This stage then turned into a ship and launched into space. We then saw Tobin in a hyper-sleep space pod on a futuristic cockpit of the ship. He later wakes up after a series of wild hallucinatory dream like pieces, and comes out at the end of the show in the same space suit used in the 3D animations.

The experience was directed by Vello Virkhaus and the team at Xite formerly (V Squared Labs) in collaboration with Amon Tobin, Leviathan and set designer Vita Motus. The stage design and visual narrative structure took the audience on a journey through Tobin’s avant-garde IDM soundscapes.
