Because snapping up $300 packages of new material might not be enough for the diehard faithful Nine Inch Nails luvvah these days, you, Trentoid of Reznoria, can now lend your Mac-editing-table talents to the cause that is Ghosts I-IV by placing your own visuals to his own music. Officially.

The NIN YouTube channel goes live at 6:00 p.m. PST today and will immediately begin accepting submissions through May 1 from fans creating visual accompaniments to selections from NIN’s recently released Ghosts I-IV. The music of Ghosts I-IV, which was released under the Creative Commons license, will be readily available via YouTube’s AudioSwap April 1.

Submissions will be reviewed by Trent Reznor, who will ultimately host a festival at a later date TBA featuring an assortment of outstanding contributions, among other surprises.

Can’t begin to imagine what those surprises will be: Party hats? Kazoos? Cake and ice cream?
