TELETRIP STAGE (SOLUNA PRODUCTIONS BY ALEJANDRO SAMPER)
The Tele-Trip Stage is an interactive TV installation that fully immerses participants in a visually stunning world. There are multiple ways to interact with the installation, including creating a silhouette on the main screen, changing the projected visual content, using a large custom-made remote control, and using a video game controller to play an XBOX360 video game on top of the visuals. Live DJs from Westhouse Collective create an immersive atmosphere every night from 5:00 PM until 9:30 PM.
THE DOORS(S) (BIG ART)
What does a door mean to you? Does it evoke feelings of opportunity or anxiety? How did a door become such a metaphor for success, failure, opportunity, family, home, change, transition, and so many other moments of emotional connection? This project explores the greater meaning of a door, and its ability to change our path in life when we have the courage to open it. Over 200 custom experiences await with every open.
POPSTAR
“PopStar is a 9′ tall illuminated cinema style popcorn box. Popstar is not a display piece but is necessarily interactive, serving up free popcorn each night of the festival. We’ve successfully deployed at Burn In The Forest 2023 and Burning Man 2023.
Popcorn: the food that tastes better after we blow it up! Tyler Soon, the creator of PopStar, has a similar explosive passion for bringing smiles to people’s faces. You can find Tyler at the Vancouver Hack Space cooking up the next project from Tybot Laboratories.
