GenQuest: Choose Your Adventure
GENQUEST A one-night experiment in generative technology, immersion, and interactivity
Presented by Machine Cinema, Creative Technology Center, and Farce Academy
On March 27th, Machine Cinema, the Creative Technology Center, and Farce Academy invite you into something different — a single night designed to show you where creativity is going, what it feels like to live inside it, and why we're just getting started. Our amazing community of AI artists have assembled a menagerie of colors, sights, and sounds!
Four acts. One night. Magic.
6–7 PM:
Doors + Drinks Arrive, settle in.
7–10PM:
The Dome / XR Gallery Step inside a full projection dome for a sensory screening of short films made by our generative AI filmmakers. Works from talented artists from our community will be featured across the dome and the XR stage.
Dream Visualizer (XR Stage) Louie Pecan and Nick Regalbuto invite you to bring your dreams up on stage — where they'll be visualized in real time across the walls, floor, and ceiling in a fully immersive, sound-reactive experience. Your subconscious, made visible.
Slopopolis Live. Enter the mystery.
Machine Cinema’s generative improv troupe transforms the immersive stage into a living story engine, inviting participants into world-building and character creation, in real time. Come ready to participate — because the plot needs you.
10–11 PM:
PLEXUSPLAY; Matt DiBiase combines electronic music, live instruments, immersive visuals, reactive LED wearables, and audience participation to create a festival dance experience unlike any other. With his custom electronic xylophone, PlexusPlay improvises melodies and triggers audio samples linked to his visuals and light suit, creating a show that’s both dazzling and impactful.
This is an early look at our vision for the future of entertainment — and we intend to do this again and again.
