The event was held in New York City's Governor's Island.


About 4000 participants this time, everyone downloads the same MP3 file.


The contents of the MP3 file is music, and a voice giving various instructions.


At 3 pm, everyone clicks the "Play" button.


Poppin.


Participants listening to instructions.


Excited.


Throb.


Even such small participants.


The first instruction is "to let everyone collapse to the ground at the same time". Everyone will collapse on the spot, with a count you hear from the earphone "Ready, 1, 2, 3".


People who do not know the circumstances can not hide surprises at this strange sight.


"What, this is ... ...."


Some also can only stand up without understanding what happened.


The following instructions flow here. "Get up and manage the behavior of those who do not have earphones."


Behind the couple sitting at the top is a queue of people who wore earphones.


"Wait a moment ~" People chasing people riding a bicycle.


The top grandmother who seems to be a bit frustrating though it is frightening.


Instructions "Next move with slow motion" will flow.


slowly, slowly.


When 4000 people encountered a sight that is moving at the same time in slow motion, it seems that it will fall into an illusion as if it entered another world.


I enjoy a sense of unity by doing the same thing as everyone at the venue.


The next instruction is "doing high touch with someone who does not have earphones".


It is characteristic of this event that people who are not participants can enjoy together.


A nice smile.


People who draw pictures also grab hands and respond with high touch.


People who are not participants will also involve more and more.


Everyone began to luggage bags.


I see something white, but ...


It is a pure white sheet. "Wearing a pure white sheet and walking like a ghost", this is the next instruction.


The venue was completely blank. According to the theme song of the movie "Ghost Busters", everyone will walk with Nosonoso.


There is no other choice but to laugh.


"Ghost Busters!"


Pocahn.


Here again a new instruction. "Gather in the center of the venue."


As many as 4,000 people come out at once.


People who were scattered at the venue gathered in one place.


And it seems that new instructions came again here. Everyone wore a hair cap.


I have something in my hands ......


This is a water gun.


I march by raising my hand with water gun.


Actually here is another instruction.


Although it is split into two teams and shoot, "In fact, you are a specially elected person giving different instructions only to you, like to shoot a group as soon as a bargain begins" from the earphone.


Actually, this instruction is flowing to everyone's earphone, and it is a catastrophe that fellows shoot each other at the same time as a signal to start. However, it seems to be fun.


People who watch the sight. "Oh, I participated too ... ...." It seems that the voice of the heart is coming to be heard.


Are you taking a centralized attack, or you can not open your eyes anymore.


Smile while getting soaked.


It is the most exciting thing so far.


At the final finale we will shake the white sheets of the previous one. Beyond that gaze ... ...


"Hexacopter" which loaded the camera.


Everyone expresses the pleasure of the success of this event toward "Hexachopter".
