Lindsey Stirling Hosts Virtual Reality Concert On Twitch
Ahead of her forthcoming album Artemis, Lindsey Stirling took to Twitch to perform a virtual concert.
The virtual reality show digitized Stirling into an avatar as she played a set full of her biggest releases to date in addition to new records from Artemis including her recently released single, "The Upside."
Stirling wore a bodysuit that tracked her movements in real-time. The instrumentalist and dancer put on a uniquely immersive performance navigating through virtual environments while playing her violin.
Stirling's audience appeared as a collection of stars overhead as she played. Between songs, Stirling took time to acknowledge viewers' comments and answer questions.
