a system that transforms

The feather is the thought, the tar the thought that sticks ... actualizing the imagination

Joseph Beuys knows how it works:
"Let's talk of a system that transforms all the social organisms into a work of art, in which the entire process of work is included... something in which the principle of production and consumption takes on a form of quality. It's a Gigantic project."

1D>2D>3D>4D>5D

" ... at the moment I'm also creative director of the 5D | Future of Immersive Design conference. That's about bringing together a new interdisciplinary design community for whom 5D means 3-D as dimensional space, plus time as the fourth-dimension, plus a fifth-dimension of narrative content. So it's the idea of creating embedded narrative in time-based space. Its specific focus is on ‘world building’ and ‘designing narratives’. It started as a conventional two-day conference event, which attracted 1200 people from all over the world. It quickly became clear that there was a much larger audience than we’d imagined – but spread very wide. So we've developed this unique idea of a distributed conference, which takes place in partnership with design and narrative media events all over the world, continuously. 5D curates panels and full day events that bring the immersive design discussion to a broad new audience ...

5D: The Future of Immersive Design is a global community of multi-disciplinary creators that are fascinated by a similar pursuit of worldbuilding for the sake of generating new storytelling experiences.

The process that is being developed is one that begins with the construction of a world. Before a specific narrative is even imagined, a parallel, fictional world is created for that story to take place in. Complete with an ecosystem, a world of characters and some general governing laws, this place of fiction becomes the platform for stories to unfold.
