Publisher Comments:
Are you ready to glow in the dark? Crash landed alone on an unknown planet for the entirety of his Glow in the Dark set with huge space scapes behind him, Kanye West takes you on a musical and visual odyssey that no antihero has taken you on before. This deluxe volume represents another leg of that voyage, giving you a gorgeous photographic ride through West's life, both on and offstage, as well as into the intimate technologies of his creative process with top visual artists of today. The instrumentals are tracks from his set remastered to echo John Williams's famous score (Jesus Walks is Vader's theme). In personal sketches and reference imagery, 3-D models of the holodeck-ian stage, and costume designs (including his Grace Jones-inspired outfits for opening act Rihanna), West once again expands a medium and triumphs in the artist's epic struggle to be creative. With a CD including previously unreleased instrumentals from the show as well as an interview with tour collaborator Spike Jonze, the book is not only a memento of one of the most successful musical performances of the year, but it is also an experience all its own.
Synopsis:
The only and official record of one of the most highly anticipated tours of the year. Including a USB drive of previously unreleased music, the book is both a memento of the tour and an object conceived by the artist himself--entirely collectible on its own. Appearing alone on stage for almost the entirety of the show with huge Star Wars-inspired spacescapes behind him, West's Glow in the Dark Tour is both a musical and a visual odyssey of Kanye as a true pioneer. This deluxe landscape volume promises to be yet another creation of this multifaceted artist and will include his original sketches and concepts; 3-D models and construction of the stage; concept art for "J.A.N.E."; costume designs (including his Grace Jones-inspired outfits for opening act Rihanna); and blog of his journey. The gatefolds and special edition USB drive put this artist's innovative and signature stamp on an already visually radical piece.
