With an open mind, UNWRAP brings together creators, knowledge institutions and companies to network, inspire, learn and experiment. UNWRAP is for everyone who dares to explore the boundaries and applications of entertainment technology. No better way to back this statement than to conduct your own experiments. Building on the connections made via previous editions of Unwrap, we brought together a unique set of people. TsarB, Klakmatrak, Decision, Wilde Westen, Howest DAE and FGH combined forces with a very simple goal: bring a game engine on stage during a life music performance, give the musicians the power to interact with the visuals, and see where this experiment leads to. For the local metalband Decision, we conducted this experiment on existing music. TsarB x Klakmatrak created a brand new set of music, specifically for this project. During the afterparty on November 6th, the results of these experiments will be played live for a public for the first time. In this panel we will zoom in on the learnings and experiences for both the musicians as for the game developers who were part of this experiment. We think this experiment, labeled StageVFX, will define a new type of game. An audiovisual experience that is played live on stage by the musicians in front of an audience.

In an area as complex and fast-moving as modern real-time graphics, it’s easy to fall on the assumption that in order to get things done, artists have no choice but to follow established conventions and use well-documented methods and pipelines. In the discipline of Technical Art however, the problems that need to be solved often require out-of-the-box thinking, where a more thorough understanding of how things work under the hood enables the invention of new, clever approaches.
In this presentation, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how to bring various sources of data into Unreal Engine materials via an example project built to showcase practical applications of the principle that “all data is data”, and the creative problem-solving potential that this insight unlocks.
