Flying Lotus TRIGGER

Today, mad beat scientist Flying Lotus introduces Trigger, a cool new web app designed to reward anyone who paid money for his 2010 album Cosmogramma. It works like this: You take a webcam pic of your CD or vinyl copy of Cosmogramma, or of the PDF booklet that came with your iTunes, Boomkat, or Bleep copy. The app uses image-recognition technology to recognize the evidence that you own Cosmogramma and gives you a download in return. That download includes alternate versions of Cosmogramma tracks and album outtakes. It’s an innovative way to thank fans who help the artist pay his rent.

Below, check out a demonstration video that shows you how the app works. Check out Trigger itself here.
