Nine Inch Nails Announces Fan Film Festival
By Rema Rahman: 2008-03-13 17:12:02
Below is an article about an artist who released an album, sans record label, that doesn’t compare them to Radiohead. Although I went so gaga for the band that Ok Computer mechanically fused itself to the tape deck of my electric red Chevy Beretta for five straight months in high school, I’m getting slightly annoyed they are mentioned in nearly every report about artists who show any inkling of delving into the digital music world.Leave it to Trent Reznor to take it just a step further. In addition to Nine Inch Nails’ Ghosts I-IV banking $1.6 million from 800,000 transactions in it’s first week of release, Reznor has announced a film festival - created by fans - to go along with the 36-track instrumental album. Though not a contest with prizes at the end, Reznor will allow his “soundtrack of daydreams” to be put to the visual test by fans who will create videos based on the songs, “meant to be an experiment in collaboration and a chance for us to interact beyond the typical one-way artist-to-fan relationship,” he posted on nin.com. Reznor also revealed that the physical album was stripped of much artwork and titles to all the tracks in order to set up a “canvas as blank as possible” for the project. Reznor himself was surprised at the notion of the albums success saying, “We are all amazed at the reaction for what we assumed would be a quiet curiosity in the NIN catalog.” Reznor, who is notoriously disses fans online for criticizing NIN’s work also proudly proclaimed, “My faith is all of you has been restored.” I’m glad someone believes in me.
