Form and Feeling – VR Sculpting Workshop
KoLab Days Workshop Series: electronic feelings
As part of the Next Level Festival and inspired by the theme: Under the motto “Electronic Feelings”, this four-part workshop series makes the invisible processes between humans and machines tangible. We follow a path of artistic transformation: Abstract data becomes soundscapes, sounds become tangible 3D forms, and in the end, everything merges into an audiovisual, collaborative performance. Discover with us how a signal becomes a shared artistic statement.
Participation is possible in any workshop, even without attending the others! However, all workshops can also be attended consecutively.
Using VR headsets and Adobe Medium, we create abstract 3D sculptures. The starting point is the sound from the previous workshop – we’ll draw inspiration from soundscapes and translate them into virtual forms. A creative workshop combining music, virtual space, and sculpture.
In this workshop, you’ll learn the basics of VR sculpting: how to shape virtual objects and use all the necessary tools. Step by step, we’ll build individual sculptures created directly in the VR environment. Finally, we’ll present the results together in the KoLab and pass on the finished objects as a basis for the next workshop. Participation is also possible independently of the other workshops.
