Description
Join generative artist and educator Simon Ryden (aka Supermarket Sallad) for a hands-on Masterclass focused on designing and producing immersive content for one of the most compelling media formats: the fulldome. In partnership with b-dome Berlin, this course offers a rare opportunity to develop a high-resolution audiovisual piece tailored to a 19-meter geodesic dome equipped with six 21K projectors, 5.1 surround sound, and a state-of-the-art playback system.
Participants will work online in an international cohort, exploring creative approaches using real-time simulation to overcome the inherent production challenges of dome environments—such as extreme resolutions, limited preview capabilities, and spatial storytelling. While TouchDesigner will serve as the primary tool, the course welcomes diverse workflows including any 3D or 2D animation software.
You’ll go through a structured, iterative process from idea to storyboard to animation, sound design, and delivery—culminating in a pre-rendered, 2-minute audiovisual work. Emphasis is placed on group collaboration, critique, and leveraging spatial sound for a truly immersive impact. Simon Ryden, known for his widely followed tutorials, brings a strong track record in creative education and production to guide you through each step of the process.
The course concludes in Berlin with a final screening at the dome, where you’ll present your piece to peers, dome staff, and the creative tech community. The evening wraps up with a shared dinner and another showcase night at Studio1111 featuring live performances from the VJ Masterclass and DJ sets.
Perfect for artists with a foundational understanding of TouchDesigner and a passion for immersive storytelling, this Masterclass is your gateway to fulldome creation and presentation.
