A mysterious portal to another dimension has appeared by Penn Station. A covert government agency you’ve never heard of has quarantined it, and is looking for volunteers to see what’s on the other side. You are that volunteer.
At 25,000 square feet with two bars and a dozen art installations, ZeroSpace is an immersive experience, event venue and long-term tech art exhibition. Founded by serial entrepreneurs Jordan Lejuwaan (Futurism.com, RaveNectar) and Jon Kreutzer (RaveNectar), ZeroSpace is a one-hour journey likened to Alice in Wonderland with aliens and lasers. Ticket-wielding volunteers drop into an environment curated by ten renowned new-media artists on a mission to stretch the perceived reality of the senses. Personal existence and purpose is confronted while art, actors and your own mind converge to prompt more questions than answers.
Artists involved in the exhibition include world-renowned new media and AI art studio, Ouchhh; projection artist Can Buyukberber, known for his immersive audiovisual experiences; as well as Joshua Davis, Gabriel Schama, TUNDRA, Hybycozo, Zack Lieberman, Dan Schaub, David Cat and Max Steiner.
