Internationally renowned musician, producer and technology advocate will.i.am was in Sydney tonight for the festival of light, music and ideas - Vivid Sydney.

Created for Vivid Sydney by digital arts company Spinifex, using technology powered by the Intel third generation processor family, the installation allows festival-goers to literally 'play' the Museum of Contemporary Art via a purpose-built interface that interacts with will.i.am's music and the projections of Sydney artist Justene Williams.
