The Viral Marketing Campaign for [[Boards of Canada]]'s 4th LP - [[Tomorrow's Harvest]] (2013), was a series of promotional events leading up to the release of the album. This included, but is not limited to: Listening parties hinted at by using cryptic online messages, a music video being played over a large advertisement screen on the streets of Tokyo, Japan and various other hints and reveals using social media and video hosting websites, alongside a track reveal on BBC Radio 1. This, combined with the '[[Cosecha Transmisiones]]' cryptic messages and clues that immediately preceded it, was considered to be an almost entirely new and unique method of artistic promotion. 
 
 
A detailed timeline of events is listed below.
