CINE TECH

/DX is a virtual reality art installation that brings the hidden fragments of film dialogue—the “cutting room floor” of post production—into an immersive 3D environment. Each snippet you never hear in the final cut is processed by removing a crackle, noise, breaths, mouth clicks, excessive room reverb, resonant hum, and sibilance. The unwanted scraps are bound to floating spheres. As you grab, toss, and move these spheres, Doppler shifts and room reverb algorithms reveal the raw, overlooked textures of dialogue editing, turning discarded audio into an interactive soundscape.

In Ecuador’s capital Quito, football fever is everywhere in the run-up to the 2002 Football World Cup. So, also in the home of eight-year-old Julián, where his parents watch football and talk about it.

Playfully, without a care in the world, every free moment seems to revolve around football.

“Scent” is a cinematic game in which, as a dog, the player roams a war-torn city, witnesses mass atrocities, and carries out one quiet task—guiding human souls toward reincarnation.

Using simple controls, players embody the dog—walking, witnessing, hiding, and collecting souls from the bodies of the dead. Devoid of backstory or context, this game offers no resolution. Instead, it invites players into a meditative space of fear, darkness, and moments of hope. At its core, this cinematic game is about what it means to witness violence and suffering without power — to observe, absorb, and endure without the ability to change the outcome.

Coded Black is a bold, narrative-driven experience that immerses players in the hidden and haunting histories of anti-Blackness in the US and UK.

This is an experience designed to be difficult – mentally and emotionally. Drawing from primary sources, historical records and scholarly analysis, Coded Black offers a journey through past atrocities and moments of triumph.

Explore two distinct, atmospheric scenes – a plantation and a modern 20th-century city – each filled with real historical documents and audio visual storytelling. With a structure that surfaces different content in each run, Coded Black is a narrative crafted for both personal reflection and educational engagement.

The game deals with the historical topic of slavery and racism, and therefore includes descriptions of violent acts, images of devices used for the chastisement of enslaved people, and archival imagery depicting victims of lynching. Note, there is a museum version available with the lynching images disabled.

Ancient Chinese immortals descend to mortal world seeking employment, competing to secure statues to inhabit—a reflection of social "involution." These statues metaphorically represent social classes: revered temple deities symbolize government authority; trendy office figurines parallel tech industry workers; urban village statues embody small business owners struggling to make ends meet; and neglected rural statues reflect elderly villagers left behind. The film also highlights the pragmatic persistence of Chinese worship, driven by tangible benefits and amplified by viral online trends. Using 3D scanning and glitch-art aesthetics, Chinese immortals portrays the collision between traditional culture and modern society.

The journey culminates in an ecstatic emergence into the global weather system. Blending science and sensuality, Honey Fungus dissolves boundaries between human and non-human life, inviting radical intimacy, care, and ecological reimagining.
