Here’s more info on NfU∆∇:

All musicians welcome. You can send only your audio if visuals isn’t your bag. Get in touch beforehand to coordinate.

Audio and video will be handled by VDO.ninja

The visual feeds from all the performers will be mixed together live. Clean efficient visuals will be key.

The resulting visual mix will be subdivided and mapped onto virtual geometry in real time during scheduled NfU lives streams on YouTube. The series will culminate in a live performance in VR space, followed by other possible VR performances in the future.

The musical style will lean toward ambient music & sound design.
The AudioVisual feeds will be sent via VDO.ninja.
