Full Immersion

An exceptional panel of international artists, engineers, and producers representing the evolving field of works created for the 360° panoramic screen. The panelists in Full Immersion – Stewart Smith, Bernd Linterman, Eric Ameres, and Thomas Soetens and Kora Van Den Bulcke of Workspace Unlimited – come from the visual arts, film, and data presentation. Some specialize in grand gestures, some write code. What they have in common is expertise in realizing works that surround the viewer, with effects that may be subtle, spectacular, or unsettling. In addition to talking about their field, they’ll also be showing up-to-the-minute examples of what’s been accomplished in it. The result will boggle not just the mind, but the eye and ear. The panel will be followed by a reception in the café. Attendees will also have a chance to see Workspace Unlimited’s installation They Watch on the panoramic screen in Studio 1.
