About the artists
4Pi Productions are an award-winning immersive arts studio blending powerful emerging technologies with cross-media storytelling approaches, producing immersive experiences that reach audiences in new and engaging ways. 4Pi explores the boundaries between art, design and technology and opened CULTVR Lab in Cardiff, Europe’s first immersive cross-disciplinary space with a strong focus on digital arts, live performance and 360º cinema. The Lab creates an environment for producers, technologists, film and theatre makers, dancers, visual artists, academics and performers to come together, learn, create and share with audiences new forms of art & entertainment.
Filastine & Nova are a multimedia duo. Their music collides with electronic beat production with dense layers of voice, concrete sounds, analogue synths, and strings. Spin magazine calls it “bass music for crumbling urban futures,” and Pitchfork says “they sound less like `world’ music and more like music from another world.” Another world is exactly what they aim to create, using sound, video, design, and dance to express a radically different vision of the possible.
Filastine & Nova are the foremost performing artists, their live show is where sound, image, and ideas are embodied.
