2021 | Dallas

As the first large-scale generative audio-visual experience of its kind, The Visualizer raises the bar for live events by blurring the boundary between the real and virtual.

AT&T’s Discovery District reimagines the company’s global headquarters in downtown Dallas as a public destination where technology, culture, and entertainment combine. As the focal point of the district, the seven-story media wall transforms a building façade into a multidimensional portal with an array of reality-bending capsules. Created to amplify live performances, the audio-reactive virtual stage acts as a digital extension of the plaza, using generative effects to broaden the reach of everything from country concerts to EDM DJ sets in real time.
