‘The experience is mind-altering.’ The Independent
‘Obermaier conjures a world where the real and virtual intermingle . . . The Matrix-like effects are truly dazzling.’ The Times
This spectacular musical event, in which groundbreaking technology meets the primeval world of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, will be one of the most remarkable experiences you will ever have in a concert hall. Experience an astonishing interplay between reality and fantasy as dancer Julia Mach’s extraordinary live performance interacts, through the magic of digital wizardry, with real-time, computer generated stereoscopic projections, translated into a virtual reality space with the aid of 3D spectacles for the audience.
