Transmedia festival · Lisboa 2019 · a MuArts · MuLabs production
You experience Art.
Art changes you.
State shifts through technology, ritual and collective experience. The first neuroscience-powered transmedia festival in Lisboa.
About
Most festivals focus on
the music. We focused
on the state.
Media is the message. Interactivity is how we shift it. TRANS-LATE was built on an ontological, multi-sensory design methodology — the first of its kind in Lisboa. The goal was to share measurable state shifts with creators, practitioners and techno-nomads, rather than to put on another night.
01
State shift
Every installation targeted a measurable shift in perception. Not entertainment — transformation.
02
Embodied knowledge
Interaction, not observation. Your body is the interface. You are part of the work.
03
Techno-ritual
Ancient symbolism, new tools. Technology mediates the ritual, not the other way around.
04
Transformational talks
Science and art intersect. Insight delivered as experience rather than as lecture.
05
Multi-sensory design
Six senses engaged at once. The whole body as receiver.
06
Collective matrix
Your internal state feeds the shared environment. The collective experience is the output.
Ethos
Technology makes
the invisible visible.
The performer has a direct connection to the audience. That connection can be read, translated and fed back — in colour, in sound, in light. If intention can be measured, it can be shared.
We use technology to produce specific alterations in the experiential body: changes that persist beyond the event, an increased awareness of pattern, a different relationship with the present moment. If every being creates their own psychological reality, and all of us feed it to a co-created matrix, what does that collective field look like? That is the question TRANS-LATE was built to answer, in real time, in a room full of people.
2019 edition · Village Underground Lisboa
One night.
One transmedia experience.
The inaugural edition brought together creators, wellbeing practitioners and neuroscientists in a format that did not previously exist in Portugal.
Experience
Mindfulness Neurofeedback
Real-time EEG feedback. Your brain state becomes the signal, and calm becomes a measurable output.
Experience
In-Volution
A neurofeedback-mediated audio-visual performance. Turn inward: the audience’s collective brain state drives the work.
Experience
Multi-Sensory Yoga
Ancient practice, generative sound, responsive visual environments. The body remembers.
Experience
Taste-Discovery
Sensory engagement from tongue to cortex. State shift through direct olfactory and gustatory input.
Pop-up events
The format travels.
Beyond the flagship festival, TRANS-LATE brought its format to international stages and conferences. The same methodology, different rooms.
