As the boundaries between technology, performance, and spatial aesthetics continue to dissolve, projection mapping is emerging as one of the most dynamic fields in contemporary media art. At the MUTEK_IMG 2015 conference in Montreal, held at the Phi Centre, Xenorama was invited to contribute to this ongoing discourse.

Representing our collective, I (Moritz Richartz) had the opportunity to present selected projects and share conceptual directions that explore the interplay between digital imagery and physical space.

The presentation focused on recent advancements in interactive and sculptural mapping formats — including experiments with organic surfaces, responsive stage design, and context-sensitive projection architectures. These approaches underscore Xenorama’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of visual storytelling through interdisciplinary collaboration and technological innovation.

We extend our sincere thanks to the teams at MUTEK and the Goethe-Institut Montréal for facilitating such a stimulating environment for exchange and experimentation. It was a privilege to contribute to this forward-looking platform alongside so many pioneering voices in media art and design.
