Imaginative Expression

The Neon Pack

‘The Neon Pack’ is a ‘Protopian Tale’ directed by Nick Bax. This immersive 360 experience by Human Studio interprets three scenes from the original short story by Nick Bax, featuring VR design and animation by Dan Fleetwood with additional design by Michaela White and an original soundtrack by 96 Back on CPU Records. 

FLOOD

Flood is a groundbreaking 45-minute location-based XR drama for up to 8 audience members. It’s a dark, foreboding, cinematic experience, set during and after an apocalyptic climate event, which confronts audiences with a bold and visceral vision of what happens when land turns to water. Audiences are dropped into a beautifully bleak virtual world where they have to work together with the cast to find dry land.

Monoliths

Three women. Three voices. The northern landscape.

Three stories open the world of the English northern landscape in virtual reality, what it means to come from it, live in it and belong to it.

Monoliths interweaves radiant renderings of three northern UK environments – a moor, a city and a coast – with sweeping soundscapes and poetic monologues by Hannah Davies, Carmen Marcus and Asma Elbadawi. At once imaginative and immersive, this XR experience is an arresting testament to the inextricable link between person and place.

The Book of Names

Two of Ireland’s leading theatre companies – ANU Productions and Landmark – collaborated for the first time, to present a hugely ambitious co-production that plots a singular path through one of the most secretive, contentious and turbulent times in Irish history.

Gumball Dreams

Gumball Dreams is a guided virtual reality theater experience with a live actor designed for three audience members. Each show runs approx. 60 minutes long.

Winner of the SXSW Audience Award XR Experience Competition, the show had its international premiere at the prestigious 79th International Venice Film Festival and its Asia premiere at the Kaohsiung Film Festival.

Virtual Play

Virtual Play is a reinterpretation of Play, with a view to engaging a 21st Century viewership that is increasingly accessing content via virtual reality (VR) technologies. It is V-SENSE’s inaugural creative arts/cultural project, under the creative technologies remit. 

ULTRACHUNK

ULTRACHUNK is a collaboration between performer Jennifer Walshe and artist Memo Akten. At once surreal, spellbinding and deeply alarming, ULTRACHUNK is a live improvisational duet between a classically-trained musician and her AI doppelganger. Over the course of a year, Irish vocalist and composer Walshe engaged in a daily ritual of performing solo improvisations in front of her webcam.

PROTO

On 10 May 2019 Holly Herndon released her third full-length album 'PROTO'. While the album isn’t about A.I., much of it was created in collaboration with her own A.I. ‘baby’, Spawn.
