June, 2024DEMO 2024 New Inc - XR Track
NYC
Produced by Carlos Johns-Dávila



For DEMO 2024: Building Resilient Realities at NEW INC, my producing approach focused on supporting a diverse cohort of XR artists in realizing technically complex, conceptually ambitious installations within a shared exhibition environment in New York City. Working with seven artists across VR, projection mapping, motion tracking, interactive games, and multimedia installation, I coordinated spatial design, equipment sourcing, and technical workflows to ensure each piece could operate cohesively within the constraints of the venue while maintaining its artistic integrity. The exhibition, curated by Danielle McPhatter, explored themes of resilience, regeneration, and alternative technological futures—reframing XR as a tool for reflection, care, and collective imagination. This work reflects my approach to producing as both infrastructural and creative: building the conditions for artists to experiment, collaborate, and present immersive work that challenges dominant narratives around technology and connection.
