through the intimacy of technology

XRE, the Extended Reality Ensemble, is excited to present the inaugural Ars Electronica Festival Garden NYC. The international, interdisciplinary artist collective chose the theme A Portal for their Festival Garden and invites the audience to explore a world of immersive art, new technology and interactive performances. Can we be intimate with technology? Can virtual and analogue artists co-exist? The festival reflects on the technological promises made to us and tries to rethink the foundations of the digital world to reconcile it with our current reality and to explore it as it intersects with culture and society. XRE’s key goal is to empower the community of NYC new media artists, creators, coders, visionaries and community activists who are directly connected to multicultural and international communities. This festival will uplift the voices of diverse artists and tech community by providing several platforms: locally through a stage at Culture Lab LIC in Queens and globally through Virtual Reality rooms and via streaming. Creators from the LGBTQ+, femme identifying and non-binary BIPOC, Asian and Latinx communities offer their unique perspectives through an array of diverse mediums and art forms, from spoken word to NFTs. The goal is to support equity and accessibility and have both participants and audience learn from one another by walking through the Portal to become enchanted by the unique combination of art, technology and society. XRE is thrilled to collaborate with Ars Electronica who are true pioneers of art, tech, community and honest conversations around using these spaces for accessibility and healing.
