Step inside the surreal world of a fading fast-food empire in this interactive adventure that mixes cinema and animation. Whether you’re the ultimate foodie, a cinema buff or just someone who loves an unforgettable experience, SWEET DREAMS is set to be the surreal snack you can’t get enough of.

Enter the Real Good Chicken Company’s headquarters and let has-been mascot Chicky Ricky take you under his wing. With the fast-food empire on the brink of collapse, join Chicky Ricky on his quest to understand what people really want in this weird and wonderful journey into the food chain. Become a worker in a cartoonish factory, a test subject in a department researching human appetite and a whole lot more as you journey through a series of different rooms charting the company’s glory days to their downfall.

Treehugger: Wawona
Director: Marshmallow Laser Feast
Year: 2016
'Treehugger: Wawona' the latest virtual reality installation from Marshmallow Laser Feast, reveals the secret life of the giant sequoia and never-before-seen inner workings of the world’s largest tree. Treehugger uniquely illustrates the sequoia’s immense scale and questions our relationship with the natural world at a time of crisis and change.
Loss.y
Director: Lisa Jamhoury
Year: 2026
Situated at the physical-virtual threshold, loss·y memorializes corporeal passing and digital rebirth. The work intertwines animated sculptural “dances” with interactive spatial audio, inviting audiences to navigate invisible thresholds as they move. loss·y presents three split-seconds of a motion-captured female-female pas de deux: each moment is suspended in a vignette that overlaps projection and 3D prints encapsulating the dance in sculpture, with spoken-word poetry and spatial sound design. The installation’s audioscapes blend cold technical facts, accounts of digital dysmorphia and surveillance, and computer-generated sampling, creating an elegy to the vital body that is at once human and digital. On its surface a critique of today’s techno-society, loss·y collusively takes up digital reduction and surveillance as creative media, revealing reverence for the uncanny wonder that pulls us forward into our new, hybridized world.
