FORMATIONS is an innovative immersive experience that merges live music with cutting-edge technology. This interactive installation and live concert employs artificial intelligence, game engines, and virtual reality to create a new form of collective human experience. Participants, equipped with VR headsets, are immersed in a dynamic virtual environment that reacts in real-time to the live musical performance, offering a unique blend of concert and interactive digital art.


Developed with Ristband's proprietary technology, FORMATIONS provides a glimpse into the future of music and emerging media. The mixed reality concert demonstrates how technology can be harnessed to create new opportunities for independent artists.


This experience represents the next generation of interactive content, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in live performances and artistic installations.
