Since 03 March 2023, our first Open Call during the HERA project funding is online.
We are looking for a strong artistic concept in connection with augmented, mixed and/or virtual reality. Thematically, we are eager to hear your ideas and topics!
Good news: Our application on a new project grand was approved!
»HERA – Handlungs- und Lernräume für Extended Reality Angebote mit der freien Kulturszene« is funded from 2023 to 2025 by the ERDF in the program »Stärkung des Innovationspotenzials in der Kultur III« (INP-III) gefördert und führt die beliebte AURORA School for Artists weiter – jetzt neu als AURORA School for XR Artists, mit Kursen zu allen XR-Technologien, auch für Fortgeschrittene, Open Calls und XR Art & Networking Events.
Also worth mentioning: The AURORA ARchive, released in March 2022, now presents 118 international AR art and culture projects – and of course, it includes all projects from the AURORA Production Lab.
Open source and free, now available at the URL: aurora-archive.com.
After being invited—together with AURORA alumna Christina Sarli and her AR comic Señor Pulpo—to the Insta-Video podcast Kreative Pause of the Berlin comic store Grober Unfug on 06.02.22, there was a nice AURORA workshop on “Comics & Augmented Reality” with 13 participating artists on 10.03.22 – due to corona still via ZOOM.
Topics:
• Creative input and comparison of sample comics and related media
• Input on digital media production
• Technological basics around AR
• AURORA alumna Christina Sarli answers questions about workflow and storytelling in Señor Pulpo
• Platform to discuss your own ideas and their technical feasibility with each other and with AR specialists.
Thanks a lot to Christina Sarli and the great artists for their highly motivated participation! 🙂
