In a groundbreaking leap in creative technology, VANDAL harnessed the power of Artificial Intelligence to create Sydney’s world-renowned New Year’s Eve 2023 countdown, content and projected light show on the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

“We’re getting ready to welcome a million people to the Harbour foreshore to celebrate with fireworks, a light show and for the first time — AI projections.”
~ Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore

Commissioned by the City of Sydney, VANDAL’s innovative creative approach has established Sydney as a world-leader in creative innovation using artificial intelligence. Synchronised with a musical, light and fireworks extravaganza, VANDAL’s use of AI marked a world first for an AI production of this scale.
