HALINA RICE: 'New Worlds'
Immersive Experience

We asked ourselves, ‘How can we push the boundaries of live performance, and make our events more immersive?’ To answer this question, we created a new immersive experience using 360 visuals and spacial sound, culminating with this performance by electronic music producer and AV artist Halina Rice.

She presented her unique vision to this new experience, translating elements of her show in a way that had never been seen before. The project ran in two ways - as a free-to-view 15-minute daytime installation, and as a live performance followed by a Q&A with Halina. On top of this, we ran a masterclass for female-identifying and gender-expansive music producers/live performers/creators working with performers interested in taking the first steps into building immersive shows. We also ran a Lightform LAB to test out ideas for immersive sensory environments. Photos by Chloe Hashemi. A #TOMtech commission
