IMMENSIVA 2025 – XR SOCIAL BLOCKS celebrates its sixth edition in Catalonia and, after previous experiences focused on multidisciplinary experimentation, it now strengthens the connection between artificial intelligence, extended reality, and collaborative dance/interaction with a strong emphasis on social construction. Under this renewed vision, the festival is dedicated to creating XR prototypes that address inclusion, diversity, and sustainability, reaffirming its commitment to social impact and cultural innovation.
More than just a festival, IMMENSIVA 2025 is a living laboratory where artists, developers, and social agents collaborate to create narrative “Blocks”: immersive pieces using XR technology, ready to be showcased in museums, educational centers, and international stages. Through collective dance, music, and AI-generated environments, each prototype becomes a bridge between creativity and social transformation.
At the heart of the festival, the artistic residency fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, integrating AI, immersive storytelling, and creative software to develop projects with collective impact. Thanks to the AI/XR Toolkit, participants create experiences that promote empathy as a driver of change.
With a focus on modularity and scalability, XR SOCIAL BLOCKS facilitates the adaptation of its productions to different contexts, strengthening Catalonia’s digital culture and professionalizing XR projects with social impact. In this spirit, local and international institutions are invited to adopt these Blocks, expanding the reach of IMMENSIVA 2025 beyond its borders.
