Cosm will present Romaneiro’s “LIQUIDVERSE: Microcosm & Macrocosm”, a multisensory immersive experience that guides guests on a journey through the beginning of the universe, in Shared Reality at Cosm’s 87-foot Diameter 12K LED Domes
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Cosm, leading immersive, technology, media, and entertainment company, today announced its latest creator partnership with acclaimed composer and new media artist Ricardo Romaneiro to release LIQUIDVERSE: Microcosm & Macrocosm, an immersive audiovisual symphony designed to be experienced in “Shared Reality” at Cosm’s forthcoming immersive entertainment venues.
Set to release in Spring 2024 at Cosm’s first venue located in Los Angeles at Hollywood Park, the Cosm Studios Original is uniquely designed for Cosm’s spatial audio system and large-scale LED dome. In LIQUIDVERSE: Microcosm & Macrocosm, created in collaboration with Liquid Light Lab and Grammy-nominated Metropolis Ensemble, Romaneiro fuses mesmerizing orchestral music with vibrant liquid visuals to guide guests through a never-before-experienced sensory journey into, and beyond, the beginning of the universe.
Romaneiro becomes the fourth artist to join Cosm Studios’ Creator Program alongside award-winning new media artist Nancy Baker Cahill, who announced SEEK with Cosm earlier this year, filmmaker and director Guy Reid, co-founder of recently announced partner Planetary Collective, and Chris Holmes, who produced the kaleidoscopic audiovisual experience The Journey Within specifically for Cosm venues.
“Building and embracing the future of immersive experiences, Cosm offers a canvas for boundless creativity that requires an outsized imagination backed by a supportive technology team to materialize a dream,” stated Romaneiro. “Through this new partnership with Cosm, I am equipped with the essential tools to soar alongside my collaborators and push the limits of creativity. By challenging immersive artists to think beyond conventional boundaries, Cosm and its innovative LED dome empowers us to breathe life into our dream projects and I am deeply honored to be part of this vibrant creative community through this meaningful collaboration.”
Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, Romaneiro’s performances at prestigious venues like the Museum of Modern Art’s Summergarden Series, Madison Square Garden, Lincoln Center, and the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, as well as collaborations with renowned brands such as Netflix, Disney+, Nat Geo, and Red Bull, have propelled his work into the spotlight. His various innovative projects with Terrence Malick have earned him international recognition, pushing the boundaries of multisensory experiences in music.
“We are thrilled to welcome Ricardo into our growing community of artist collaborators,” said Neil Carty, Head of Cosm Studios and Labs at Cosm. “His eclectic style of composing classical symphonies blended with electronic sounds and new media is a completely new category of its own, and Cosm is the perfect canvas to bring this unforgettable journey to audiences in Shared Reality. Paired with the art of Liquid Light Lab and Cosm’s display technology, audiences will feel like they’re sitting right inside the pit of a live orchestra.”
Fostering the art of fulldome filmmaking and the immersive creator ecosystem, Cosm Studios, Cosm’s content and storytelling arm, works with an interdisciplinary community of some of the most talented artists, filmmakers, technologists, and experience designers to push the boundaries of immersive storytelling and design.
