THE IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE – SEMINAR. When audio, light and technology become an experience.
A unique two-day seminar dedicated to Immersive Sound, Lighting and Live Production, where modern audio, lighting and wireless technologies meet artistic creation.
At “The Immersive Experience” leading companies in the field present their latest developments and applications in real live production conditions.
During the seminar, systems and technologies from the following companies will be presented:
DIGICO – FOURIER – KLANG – SOUND DEVICES – LECTROSONICS (IEM & Wireless)
FLETCHER Machine – ADAMSON – FOLLOW-ME – PROLIGHTS
Workflow, technologies and practices used today in the largest international productions.
Participants will have the opportunity to see up close how technology allows for absolute control of lighting in real time, creating a dynamic and perfectly synchronized stage experience.
A special highlight of the seminar will be the LIVE IMMERSIVE DEMO, where technology will meet the musical act in a fully immersive environment.
The demo will be opened by Livas Trio GR with Vangelis Karipis, Taxiarchis Georgoulis and Tasos Poulios.
Then, it will be taken over by internationally renowned mezzo-soprano Markella Hatziano, along with piano soloist and composer Dimitris Keramidakis, who will present an exclusive excerpt from the groundbreaking international project “LIGHT”.
This project is set to make its world premiere in the United States in May 2026, and as part of the seminar, the audience will have the opportunity to experience a sample of it within the immersive dimension of the presentation.
The seminar will take place over two almost identical days, allowing participants to attend the day that suits them or even both days.
