c3: CreateLAB is the project R&D and performance arm of the c3. Artists and content creators are provided with the opportunity to explore the world of the immersive 360 fulldome space in The Vortex Dome through a special arrangement and generosity of sponsor Vortex Immersion Media. The Vortex Dome has also provided space to artists for traditional film screenings, concerts and workshops.
The c3 has designed a special AIR: Artists In Residence Program in partnership with Vortex Immersion Media to allow artists to evolve their skills in the execution and creation of 360 fulldome visuals and performances.
