STARTS Residencies is a project supported by the European Commission (Horizon 2020) aiming to develop innovative collaborations between artists, researchers, engineers, coders... Between 2017 and 2020, 45 artistic residencies have been organised across Europe in connection with technological innovation platforms (research labs, start-ups, etc.)
Dark Euphoria is a laureate of the STARTS Residencies programme in 2019, and on this occasion meets the stage director Julie Desmet Weaver, who has a project for a digital adaptation of Froth on the Daydream, the famous novel by Boris Vian. Together, they imagine a totally new immersive and interactive experience, plunging the audience into the heart of Boris Vian's universe, thanks to multiple technological innovations (360° immersive device, real-time volumetric capture).
