🚀 After launching three mission-driven cultural institutions, it’s fair to say Alex Capriotti is pretty stellar.

Now she’s our new Head of Marketing & Comms, and we’re over the moon to have her. 💫

Climate Week NYC was one for the books.

From methane visualized in 360° to inter-island systems thinking to LED karaoke—we saw what’s possible when art, science, and story come together.

Immersive media for good is gaining momentum. Let’s keep going.

The world is a lot. But recently, we co-hosted an #XRCommunityMixer with ASU that reminded us what really matters: connection, imagination, and care.
Grateful to share space with brilliant creators and showcase work by Simeone Scaramozzino, GRX Immersive, VRX, and Nonny de la Peña.

Got to experience the premiere of “In Plain Sight: A Climate Solution Unlocked”—a 360° immersive film that reveals how methane, an invisible climate threat, can be tackled.

Art + science + data = a powerful experience. It made us think: What could it look like as a full XR story?

Guided 5 civic leaders and curators through “In Search of Us” today — and the conversations afterward were as powerful as the art.

This is how we grow the field: through real dialogue and shared wonder.

Film asks you to watch. XR dares you to be there.

Tribeca’s immersive section isn’t a side dish — it’s the neural spark of what storytelling can become.
