At music festivals, Heineken projected infrared messages only visible through phone cameras, telling filming fans to put their phones down.

The challenge

Many young concertgoers record shows instead of enjoying them.

The idea

Infrared lighting hid messages that were invisible to the naked eye but showed up on any phone screen pointed at the stage. Fans filming at events in Mexico and Amsterdam were prompted to live the moment instead, extending Heineken's Boring Phone platform.
