The LabInsights is a recurring event hosted by and in the Immersive Arts Space. At least once a year we open the doors to visitors and participants and showcase the current projects being developed in the lab. The informal event aims to demonstrate the state of the projects and at the same time involve students, artists and visitors to test the expereiences and give feedback.
Upcoming LabInsights will be posted on the website and our social media channels.
On Friday, 07th March 2025, the Immersive Arts Space opens its doors for an informal gathering. During the LabInsights students from the Immersive Arts Basic Minor will present their projects developed during the minor block weeks. In addition, two current project from our own research will be on display.
Minor presentations and apéro from 17:00!
The next LabInsights will take place on 4th April 2024. This year visitors are invited to experience XRconFIGURE with Virtual Reality Googles and learn more about our latest work-in-progress projects and research such as Puppets, Probing XR’s Futures and Realtime Stable Diffusion. In an informal setting and with an aperitif it is a great opportunity to meet and exchange about current and new developments taking place in the Immersive Arts Space.
