France Jobin and Markus Heckmann will present Entanglement dome at SAT

August 26th 2023 – SAT – 20h and 22h
1201, boul. St-Laurent
Montreal, Qc

For its 24th edition, the MUTEK Festival returns to the dome of the Society for Arts and Technology [SAT] for the Satosphere Series, a program of immersive works and performances that explore new conceptual and sensory territories.

On the agenda: an exploration of the duality between analog and digital (Metaract); a supernatural journey to rediscover the transcendence of nature (Iwakura); an immersion into a sacred ritual of spiritual union (Union); an opening to an inclusive spatio-temporal world (I want to leave this Earth behind), and a sensory experience around quantum physics (Entanglement).

The SAT x MUTEK program in the Satosphere is presented by the SAT and is not included in the MUTEK passes. However, MUTEK pass holders can benefit from a 15% discount for this event. This offer is available in person at the ticket office of the Society for Arts and Technology (1201, boul. St-Laurent). Within the limit of available seats

Mutek Immersive collection at Sónar+D – Barcelona

Mutek Immersive collection will be at Sónar Barcelona in June 2023

Project Area – Realities+D (AR/VR)

Lost worlds, surreal environments and alternate realities

Immerse yourself in a showcase of the most creative augmented and virtual reality experiences around at Project Area this year. There’ll be downloadable apps for you to test on your mobile device throughout Sónar by Day, plus 14 different virtual reality projects to be experienced, covering lost worlds, surreal environments, and alternate realities.  

Discover our first three XR artworks

As a festival presenting cutting-edge audiovisual performances — works that innovate to create a new language of sound and images — we have always strived to accompany artists across new boundaries of technology. 2022 opens up a new chapter for MUTEK, marking our first steps as an Extended Reality (XR) content producer. Five artists have stepped up to the challenge of reinventing a past festival performance into an XR artwork. The result is an eclectic yet coherent set of three different XR projects ranging from contemplative to surreal to dynamic: Entanglement XR by France Jobin & Markus Heckmann, House of Moiré by Chloe Alexandra Thompson & Matthew Edwards (aesthetic.stalemate), and Immortelle by Line Katcho

Published by MUTEK on several online content stores, starting with Steam, the Immersive Collection will also join the catalog of Astrea, the largest international distributor of immersive productions, and be presented at select festivals and spaces worldwide.

See below for more information about the artists and their projects.

ENTANGLEMENT

Markus Heckmann France Jobin

Admission is free.

At the crossroads between scientific research and audiovisual art, “Entanglement”, developed by France Jobin and Markus Heckmann takes its inspiration from the physical phenomenon of quantum entanglement and quantum field theory. With this artistic project, the artists studied the two dominant theories of quantum entanglement: the Copenhagen interpretation and the concept of the multiverse. In addition to these two theories, Jobin and Heckmann also took a closer look at the fluidity of time. This intensive research resulted in an ambitious and immersive experience that premiered in 2021 at Montreal’s MUTEK festival (NEW NOW cooperation partner) and can now be experienced for the first time in Germany in the impressive rooms of the Mixing Plant.

For over 20 years, MUTEK has been dedicated to showcasing live electronic music and real-time audiovisual performances in Montreal, making it one of the few venues in North America where such innovation occurs. MUTEK has built a unique model over the years that has proven to be alluringly exportable. The tentacles now span four continents and six other cities such as Tokyo, Barcelona or Buenos Aires, with each satellite adapting the festival’s values ​​of inclusion and accessibility to inspire new ways of engaging with the richness of electronic and digital art.

After the cooperation between HYBRID and MUTEK was postponed at short notice in March 2020 and could only take place digitally in March 2021 with thousands of online guests, the first cooperation will finally be live in the Festspielhaus in Hellerau on October 29th, 2022: with Ryoichi Kurokawa, France Jobin & Markus Heckmann, Line Katcho, Flabbergast and RAMZi will guarantee artists who have long been associated with MUTEK an extraordinary evening in the Great Hall of the Festpielhaus.
