about PLUG-IN CUBE
During COVID 19 and global changes, we faced a new reality and realized the complexity of interactions offline. With this in mind, we developed “Plug-in Cube”, which is an alternative to “Plug-in”. The “Plug-in Cube” is a modular lighting installation that will become an identity sign of our platform and will be the permanent "room" for broadcasting and performances within our project. It is a transportable object which will allow us to set the live streamings of audio and visual performances from different locations.
