IMMERSE made it into the 2019 Sydney Festival
We are happy to share that the UTS Games Studio has been successful in participating in the 2019 Sydney Festival.
IMMERSE, a one-of-a-kind project, consisted of 360-degree video projections that morphed and changed in response to live performances of classical and electronic music. This new collaborative project was created for the UTS Data Arena, an interactive audiovisual space.
IMMERSE originated from the idea that all new knowledge builds on past knowledge. The music performed reflects, abstracts and contemplates works that have gone before.
