Join us on this pre-meeting stay, organised in collaboration with White Hole Theater, one day prior to the IETM Aarhus Plenary Meeting. You will see the newest WHT production The Battle 2, get a tour in the historical and creative hot-spots in the city and participate in a dialogue with local experts about digital theatre seen through the lens of sustainability.
At the IETM pre-meeting at White Hole Theater, you will be introduced to and interact with creators from the UNESCO Creative City of Media Arts: Viborg. White Hole Theater is an experimental platform in Viborg that merges real-world theatrical experiences with reality-enhancing technologies to tell stories in an unprecedented way. Founded in 2020, White Hole Theater explores new ways of merging in-person performance, virtual reality, and interactive online experiences to create radically new ways of telling stories. By questioning the paradigms of theatre and digital reality, we aim to not just change how experiences are accessed, but change the fundamental types of experiences that can be created and shared.
