Satosphere

Immersive experiences

An event for the fulldome community, presented by Ubisoft

As part of the SAT Fest 2026, join us in the Satosphere on March 24 at 7:00 PM for a gathering fully dedicated to immersive creation, with a special focus on 3D rendering engines. Artists and members of the fulldome community are invited to discover the latest news in the field, connect with their peers, and test out their projects directly in our dome.

On the program:

Artist Presentations (7:00 – 8:00PM) : Lou Evoy, François Vautier, Johann Baron Lanteigne, Jonah Hache and Marc-André Cosette, immersion artists, will share their practice, insights, and approaches to real-time systems, 3D creation, video games and interaction.
Jam & Networking (8:00 – 9:00PM) : The dome switches to open-jam mode! Two workstations, one for video and one for spatial audio, will be available for hands-on experimentation. No registration is required. Technical details can be found below.

Don’t miss this opportunity to test out our immersive devices, meet the local and international immersive community, discover the endless creative possibilities with 3D rendering engines and celebrate SAT Fest 2026.

TECHNICAL DETAILS FOR THE OPEN JAM

VIDEO STATION

If you wish to project content in the dome, please bring your files on a USB key.
You can also connect your own machine via NDI. To do so, make sure you have installed the NDI Tools Bundle beforehand.

AUDIO STATION

An RME Digiface Dante will be available to connect to our system from your own machine. It is essential that you install the drivers in advance and follow the installation instructions carefully.
Tests will be limited to a maximum of 16 output channels per machine.
You can also use our audio station to test spatial mixes in the following formats: 5.1, 7.1, 9.1, 8.1, 16.1. In this case, please bring your files on a USB drive, numbered and named according to SMPTE order (e.g., 1_L, 2_R, 3_C, 4_LFE, 5_Ls, 6_Rs, etc.).
Stereo content can also be tested via a 1/8″ jack input.

We will do our best to accommodate as many artists as possible during the jam. We are counting on everyone’s communication and consideration so that as many participants as possible can take part in the jam and test their works.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

Lou Evoy

Lou Evoy is a technical artist based in Montreal, specializing in the development of generative and immersive systems. A graduate in electroacoustics from Concordia University, he first honed his expertise in sound design, audio post-production, and music composition, contributing to various projects in film, television, advertising, and video games. This mastery of multichannel environments and the rigorous demands of large-scale productions shaped his meticulous approach to his creative work. His practice has since expanded to creative programming, generative visual arts, and interactive installation design. Whether working with sound, image, or immersive systems, he approaches each project with obsessive rigor. His personal works explore a visceral and dissociative aesthetic, while his collaborations place his precision at the service of other artists' visions. He currently works at the SAT, where he designs systems and softwares dedicated to performance and artistic creation.

François Vautier

François Vautier is a director and visual artist known for his work at the intersection of cinema, virtual reality, and narrative experimentation. He develops unique immersive works that explore memory, time, and new narrative devices. His latest VR films, produced by the Paris-based company Da Prod, including I Saw the Future, Odyssey 1.4.9, Recoding Entropia, and Champ de Bataille, have been selected and presented at international festivals such as the Venice Film Festival and SXSW, and have been viewed by millions of people around the world. François is constantly looking out for new forms of immersive cinema that combine technological innovation with artistic excellence. He is currently developing his next film, Beta Aquarii.

Baron Lanteigne

Baron Lanteigne hijacks technologies to reveal their materiality and potential. His ongoing research examines the ergonomics of our everyday digital habits, exposing the frictions and subtle discomforts that arise at the thresholds where the physical meets the digital. The traces of his research manifest as sculptural screen-portals that open onto fragile digital ecosystems. Through performance, he plays with how small gestures can shift their balance.

Jonah Haché

Jonah Haché is an Acadian media artist working across visual design for festivals, television, immersive environments, fulldome, and live audiovisual performance. His practice brings together 3D animation, real-time systems, and sound to create spatial, narrative-driven experiences. His work explores the relationship between memory, perception, and space through projection, interactivity, and sound. He uses tools such as Blender, ComfyUI, and Unreal Engine in the creation of his short film 5055.

Marc-André Cossette

Marc-André Cossette is an artist-researcher, doctoral candidate at Concordia University, and lecturer at the École des médias at UQAM. He is also the lead developer of the ELEKTRA Virtual Museum (EVM). His research-creation work focuses on the use of artificial neural networks in conjunction with dance improvisation and musical composition. His works, presented at festivals such as Ars Electronica (AT), ISEA (ES/KR), MUTEK, 100LUX, and ELEKTRA, explore modes of performance at the intersection of algorithmic generation, human movement, and real-time rendering technologies.
