Koninklijk Conservatorium, The Hague
March 13-17, 2023
Welcome to the audio-visual virtual exhibition showcasing the results of a one-week workshop by a group of talented students from The Royal Conservatory, The Hague. This exhibition features 15 captivating exercises that explore various themes and techniques, showcasing the creativity and ingenuity of the students. While some of the projects may still require some fine-tuning, they all represent cohesive and original works that were created in just five days of learning how to work with virtual environments.
The virtual exhibition format allows visitors to immerse themselves in the world of the students’ creations, as they navigate through a series of audio-visual installations. Each exercise offers a unique experience, featuring a range of interactive experiences landscapes, and soundscapes.
I would like to extend a special thank you to The Royal Conservatory, The Hague, as well as to Martijn Padding and Erika Bordon, for making this workshop possible and bringing it to life.
