This year’s Glastonbury Festival unveiled a brand new stage from Block9, IICON. The twenty-meter head-shaped stage is a structure of megalithic proportions. IICON is an impressive architectural showpiece in and of itself, but at night it comes alive with bespoke content created in Notch. LED panels in the VR visor glow and three-dimensional video maps onto the entire structure animating the surface of the head.

In this episode, Mike Wilson - the lead 3D artist for the project - shares his story, and dives heavily into the details of what it takes to work on a project such as IICON.
