Stage Set-Up
Middle portion of a Fragility v2.0 show
This tour featured three vertical LED screens for three slow songs in the middle of the show, "La Mer", "The Great Below" and "The Mark Has Been Made". The visuals shown on the screens were provided by Bill Viola. The And All That Could Have Been DVD contains commentary from Viola about the making of the visuals. The screens were also used during certain other songs with simpler visuals such as undulating shapes or fields of solid color/light. At the beginning of each show, the stage was surrounded with a scrim that was pulled away after the set intro.
A notable piece of gear was Clouser's custom keyboard stand, similar to the custom stand used by Reznor on the Self Destruct Touring Cycle, which could rotate in different directions and was fitted with a motorcycle shock absorber. The rough design was done by Clouser, and the stand was built by metal fabricator Tim Ralston, who specializes in movie props.[1] Reznor also had several custom guitars during this tour, with imagery from the album artwork on the bodies. The guitars were not painted, but instead had skins applied to them.[2]
