Eclipsing - Andrew Schneider & Annie Saunders
A new site-specific soundwalk created by Tribeca Immersive Award-winning duo Point A (artists Andrew Schneider and Annie Saunders), in collaboration with astrophysicists and the local community.
Antipsychotic - Matt McCorkle
Embark on an immersive exploration in a psychotropic cyberpunk universe, where each element – from spatial audio to tactile haptic systems – is meticulously crafted to represent the emotional spectrum of a lived bipolar disorder experience.

The Golden Key - Matthew Niederhauser & Marc Da Costa
What power do folktales have? Who shapes the myths of the future? The Golden Key brings audiences into contact with the mythological dreams of an AI as it writes and visualizes a never-ending story while also inviting them to participate in the myth-making process.
Shadowtime - Sister Sylvester & Deniz Tortum
‘You are in two worlds at the same time. Your body is in the other world, but your heart is in this one.’ Alma, a mysterious guide to this double world, leads you through questions around the climate crisis, irreconcilable realities, and the virtual as a place to take shelter.
Tulpamancer - Matthew Niederhauser & Marc Da Costa
Tulpamancer is a machine learning VR installation that shapes a dreamlike, immersive encounter with the memories and possible futures of each participant. Inspired by the concept of a tulpa, Tulpamancer explores how the intersection of generative AI and VR can shape new ways of encountering ourselves.
