Synectics is a traveling experience that heightens the connection between the unorthodox, yet truthful sound of the genre-inventing band, Linkin Park and its passionate fan base. The journey starts with the very first noise being made. The band break free of the expectations and existing barriers to explore and create the uniquely distinctive sound that composes a brand new experience. With the messages from their impactive lyrics and music videos, and the astonishing visual effect at the live performances. Even though every change and new stuff sounds so different, you know that sound is Linkin Park. Since most of the fan communities are online now. Synectics can provide a great opportunity for fans to meet each other and the band members, obtain an understanding of band's philosophy in creating music, and receive exclusive materials from the band. And the demographic will be focused on their fans and people who know Linkin Park via different media other than their music (side projects, movies, arts......etc.) to get a better understanding of the band. The time for Synectics will be two days before Linkin Park concerts in majorcities and the nights after the concerts. Participants will be transported to the location, which will be warehouses near the concert locations. Synectics location with signage on the loading dock doors. Participants will enter the warehouse via the loading dock and into the Synectics structure. Graphics will be projected onto people walking into Synectics Fans drawings being projected onto the ceiling plane. Videos and other fan works also projected to the ceiling plane and meshes.

Incredible concept. I've never seen a fan put so much into a proposal before. I don't work with the band, so I can't guarantee this will even get to Linkin Park, but I definitely pass this on to someone who works with the LPU. Very awesome.
This is so freaking awesome! It's some kind of university/college thesis or final project? Hope this idea gets to the band!
Funny that I found this thread on Google while updating my site just now. lol This is a project I did a year ago for my exhibition design class. I was inspired by us passionate LP fans, and wanted to create a more intimate and special exhibition experience. If you are interested, here's my site with updated renderings and other stuff. http://evanliao.com/Synectics Many thanks for the good words, and thanks visioniscary for posting.
