OUR VISION
CULTVR Lab is Europe’s first immersive cross-disciplinary space with a strong focus on digital arts, live performance and 360º cinema. This unique arts centre allows for immersive technologies to be developed, tested and deployed, exploring new methods for storytelling within immersive performances and presentations.
Conceived by 4Pi Productions, the Lab creates an environment for producers, technologists, film and theatre makers, artists, academics and performers to come together in the pursuit of this unique medium’s capabilities. We have also created an online platform that uses emerging technologies to connect audiences with contemporary arts and culture from across Wales. CULTVR’s portal offers a digital space for artists, producers and venues to promote their work in an entirely new immersive medium. We capture events using Virtual Reality (VR) technology, 360 video and photography alongside high quality 3D scans, capturing the now and preserving it for future generations in a forward facing form.
