‘Black Mirror’ video site

Pretty neat site just launched by the Arcade Fire. It’s an interactive video for the song “Black Mirror” (the domain, rorrimkcalb.com, is the title spelled backwards*). Interactive in the sense that as you watch you can toggle six audio channels: (1) lead vocal, (2) echoey percussion, (3) echoey bass, (4) echoey piano, (5) echoey, Davich Lynch-y backup vocals, and (6) strings. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that before, and it’s revealing. Video’s good too.
