An interactive musical videogame
Lumens game, the second original creation of the group, explores the link between virtual and reality by creating a 3D multi-screen environment projected in front of and around the audience. The two creators give life to music and image in real time, like an interactive musical videogame. An immersive multimedia performance with musical instruments like drumpads, electronic instruments, laser frames, motion capture by Kinect, and even… water! A show you need to hear with your own eyes.
After the 45 minutes performance, we take the children behind the scene and we welcome them on stage to try and play with our invented instruments so they can play their own collective song!
Lumens won first prize from Mécènes investis pour les arts and the Opus prize for “Concert of the Year, musique actuelle et électroacoustique”. It has been selected for a number of prestigious showcases, including IPAY, Classical Next, CINARS, Contact East and RIDEAU.
Lumens has distinguished itself not only on stage, but also in innovative formats such as virtual reality. It has been presented over 60 times in North America (Canada, USA) and Asia (Korea, China, Hong Kong).
Lumens is very high quality and unique, an artistic experience that is refreshing and new. The audience was engaged throughout the entire performance and thoroughly enjoyed the show.
