Spontaneous Fantasia at the Glendale Planetarium
Glendale Community College Planetarium Glendale, CA
Spontaneous Fantasia: The Omnicentric Universe is spectacular live virtual reality performance created by pioneering high-tech artist J-Walt. He performs his animations and music in a state-of-the-art immersive digital planetarium theater. Using technology he created, this Academy Award winning computer wizard draws 3D sculptures and landscapes, taking his audience on a one-of-a-kind audio-visual odyssey of fantastic worlds and extended possibilities. Suitable for ages 5 and up.
Spontaneous Fantasia must be seen to be believed. J-Walt has created his own animation system which allows him to draw with his computer tablet and create dancing figures, abstract sculptures, fantastic architecture, and virtual worlds. Examples may be viewed at http://www.spontaneousfantasia.com.
In The Omnicentric Universe, J-Walt creates an entire universe in real time live before the audience. The universe becomes alive as J-Walt creates planets, landscapes and surreal creatures all to the sounds of a musical score that he created. His electronic music ranges from ambient to danceable beats and includes his own electronic renditions of classical music as well.
The Glendale Planetarium is one of the best-kept secrets in Los Angeles. This intimate theater with reclining seats is the best digital planetarium in Southern California. It's the perfect venue to immerse an audience in an amazing mind-expanding virtual worlds and animated sculptures that J-Walt performs.
