(Artistic director and technical designer Virtual Reality)
Author and director Sara Meneghetti, and creative director Eugenio Perinelli talk about the genesis and production of "Oedipus Rex in Virtual Reality": an experimental work in which actors filmed on green screens are placed within fully three-dimensional sets in an immersive experience. The guests will go into detail about the artistic and technical solutions adopted to adapt Sophocles' text from which the play is inspired to the new media and explain the approach used to make the show enjoyable and usable even for those trying VR viewers for the first time. SUNDAY, 2 April / 12:30 - 14:00 (TECH ARENA) TOPICS Digital & Interactive Media Design: The Immaterial Scene. Director Cristian Taraborrelli for more than two decades has accustomed us to performances in which action on stage and video projection perfectly complement and complement each other. His own dual role as director and set designer allows him to build an impressive stagecraft machine in the full sense of the term, where moving images are not just simple backgrounds, but dramaturgical elements that add new meanings to the performance.
It has taken the world of opera a few more decades to debunk and embrace the fertile interference and endless techno-visual possibilities of new media. A full demonstration of this is the Pagliacci staging presented at the Carlo Felice in Genoa by Cristian Taraborrelli, who decided to work on Augmented Reality. This is the first time this has happened in Italy and perhaps even abroad, except for such stagings at the Comische Oper in Berlin. The lecture we are proposing with the director intends to delve into this complex innovative theatrical process, presenting a significant use of the most disparate video technologies, in particular multiple large-scale video projections (both overlap and non-overlap), shaped, mapped and masked, on different levels and on materials of various kinds including tulle, tripolines, cloth, earth and plastic materials
