ESC: Experiential Sensory Collective is REM5's flagship art event. It combines XR installations with a range of technology and music to create a one-of-a-kind experience right here in the Twin Cities. Since October of 2019, ESC has grown and brought together local, underrepresented digital creators to showcase new media ideas and build a must-attend event for the who's who of Minnesota's creative community.
As we look towards the future, we envision a culmination of art, panels, educational sessions & more all in one week each fall at REM5 VR Lab. This takes our flagship event, ESC, and builds a micro-conference around it as we continue to build on our mission around making immersive technology approachable and understandable.
METAVERSE | WEB3 | VIRTUAL REALITY | AUGMENTED REALITY | XR ART
PANELS | DEMOS | WORKSHOPS
But, we can't do it alone. We have a group of partners & artists ready to build out this event for the fall of 2022 and that's where you come in. We are seeking corporate and financial sponsorships so that ESC take the next big step forward and put Minnesota makers on the map in the field of XR creation and thought leadership.
