“_First A/V” is an educational and collaborative project introducing the creation of a digital, interactive, and immersive audio-visual performance. A guide and “Blurb,” an all-purpose tool containing everything needed for a mobile immersive installation, immerse a classroom simultaneously into the worlds of live video generation and music production. “_First A/V” makes the creative process accessible and understandable, enabling students to freely express themselves afterwards. Each student sees their personal touch take shape. In a commitment to inclusion and sustainability, “Blurb” serves as an example to younger generations that it’s possible to achieve a lot with very little.
With this project, artists Zohra Mrad and Damiano Picci aim to transform how art and technology are perceived and integrated into the educational curriculum. By offering a more interactive and immersive approach, the project leaders hope to spark greater interest in these fields among children, while emphasizing the importance of creativity and innovation in their learning process.
