The festival examines fulldome as an artistic media, and highlights ‘the creative and experimental applications of immersive environments, beyond the realm of astronomy education most commonly associated with digital planetariums today’.

They’ve got a pretty full programme, with shorts and feature screenings and sessions running from 9am – 9pm on the Sat and 9am – 7pm on Sun.

Sessions will provide discussion, presentations and workshops based around providing an insight into the processes and challenges of Fulldome content production, from both a conceptual and technical view.

There’s also a special schedule of screenings which will be free to Thinktank ticket holders over the weekend.

Tickets are £40 per day / £20 concessions, and can be bought online.

Continuum is an evening of experimental full dome, 360-degree, dance and visual arts based work taking place this evening at Thinktank Planetarium, Millennium Point.

Continuum is a meditation on notions of beauty, perfection and difference. The focus is the human body, physically and digitally modified and transformed.

Developed during residencies with the Medical Research Council, Virology Unit; Allenheads Contemporary Arts and Dance City, the evening will also host a screening of Written on the Body and Dance360, groundbreaking fulldome pieces created with local artists.
