Fans have the opportunity to ride digital shotgun during the entire route of Gumball 3000 with deadmau5 courtesy of Influxis who have powered his live streaming for concerts, events and studio sessions since 2011. Multiple Realtime Immersion (RTI) 360 Hummingbird cameras positioned throughout the car will allow fans to have unprecedented control, with ability to pan, tilt, and zoom within the video, as if they are controlling a live camera or experiencing the action first hand. RTI’s patented cameras capture Ultra HD video covering 360 degrees of the environment; this video is then streamed in real time to virtually any connected device through the live.deadmau5 app.
He is the first in the rally to be live streamed from inside his custom Purarri alongside his co-pilot Tory Belleciof Discovery Channel’s MythBusters. Throughout his journey he will preview tracks from while(1<2), release limited edition content and be joined by special surprise guests.
Cruise with deadmau5 from the sunshine and parties of Miami on Thursday, June 5, through the state of Florida towards Georgia and into Atlanta on Friday, June 6. Then in New York on Saturday, June 7 all 120 supercars in the rally will be loaded onto cargo planes and flown over the Atlantic to Scotland with deadmau5 and other Gumballers, which include stars from a range of industries, including David Hasselhoff, EVE, Tony Hawk, Meek Mill, Trinidad Jame$, Fast N Loud’s Richard Rawlings, DJ Drama, Tinie Tempah, 13th Witness, Dizzee Rascal, Bun B, JAWS, Stevie Williams and Nigel Sylvester. The home stretch will be just a short drive and ferry ride to the finish line in Ibiza, for an explosive finale celebration weekend.
The Gumball 3000 Foundation–launched in May 2013 in celebration of the rally’s 15th anniversary milestone–benefits underprivileged youth through education, infrastructure and environmental projects. On each night of the rally, Christie’s auction house will host a charity auction to benefit the Gumball 3000 Foundation. Seven unique lots of pop culture memorabilia go under the hammer, including the spectacular Lot 1, an original deadmau5 mau5head.
