ARTECHOUSE Washington DC proudly debuts the award-winning Mehmet Ünal Ensemble’s “Luminous Resonance: Elemental Soundscapes.” This innovative performance seamlessly blends new-age and traditional instruments, harmonizing the past and future of music.

What sets this event apart is its real-time connection to a VR instrument of Riccardo Sellan in Church of Saints Cosma and Damiano in Venice , Italy ; adding an international dimension to the experience. Talented string musicians from the Washington Project for the Arts (WPA) join the ensemble, seamlessly integrating traditional expertise with new-age instruments.

Special thanks to the incredibly talented musician, Riccardo Sellan. His contributions and music were pivotal in making this project possible. Riccardo’s artistry added depth and richness to my work, and I am profoundly grateful for his involvement.

I’ve contributed on the VR instrument development aspect of the ‘Luminous Resonance: Elemental Soundscapes’ experience as a creative technologist, and as a visual artist and creative technologist for the ‘Sound of Light’ installation.
