Electric South has supported African artists from a spectrum of creative disciplines to explore XR storytelling.
Our first projects were co-produced under the New Dimensions banner by Electric South and the Goethe-Institut South Africa, with additional support from Big World Cinema, Blue Ice Docs and the Bertha Foundation.
To date Electric South have produced and supported over 20 XR productions.
In the mystical Oloolua Forest, embark on an AR quest to unite the Wardens, confront inner turmoil, and thwart the villainous Polluter in a vibrant tale of redemption and harmony.
‘DOLLHOUSE for Queer Imaginaries’ is a multi-user VR project which invites a community to refigure the home through the act of play.
The project is a love story about home—who gets to make it and occupy it. The immersive experience invites a community to refigure the home through play, subverting the typology of the home and leveraging creative technology to provide safe, inclusive spaces for marginalised communities to gather and build community. The project’s outcome will be a social VR experience for audiences to inhabit, move around in, and engage in space-making by refiguring the world around them.
