Transforming opera audiences into active explorers – Artist Talk @ Opera Beyond 2019
“Maya” is an innovative mixed-reality techno-opera set in the ruins of a former heating plant in Munich. This unique experience blends augmented reality, opera, and techno music, allowing audiences to explore the remnants of a past civilization through the eyes of “Maya,” a digital being on a mission to save humanity. The immersive performance used an AR app that guided participants through the site, creating a dynamic, interactive experience where the physical and virtual worlds merged seamlessly.
Mathis Nitschke held an artist talk at the Opera Beyond conference in Helsinki 2019 about the Mixed-Reality-Techno-Opera MAYA about the very essence of this project: “Transforming opera audiences into active explorers”.
