XRMust 2.0 is here 🤩

Mathieu G.

Dear XRMust reader,

In an evolution that took its time (!), XRMust 2.0 is finally online. Two years in the making, we’ve put our project on a long-term footing, offering you all the features we wanted to develop. Alongside a magazine now recognized by immersive creation professionals worldwide, you’ll be able to explore our database dedicated to the XR industry. Thanks to our team for the help!

The XRMust platform is an independent online media, founded by Mathieu Gayet (France) and Fabio Hofnik (Brazil-Canada), dedicated to supporting the cultural and creative industries through the emergence of immersive technologies. Via our magazine and a team of motivated freelancers, as well as a database mapping the entire XR community, our job is to offer better information on innovative digital art, as well as to support events and festivals on these subjects.

Events calendar, fact sheet on each artistic project discussed, directory of companies and professionals, link to the Stores, press review… Our database is far from complete, but it’s fully functional. In 2024, our aim is to complete this information to offer you the best possible panorama of immersive and digital creation.

Create your account, read our articles, use the database, share the news! 😘

What’s next? It’s up to you to help us create it, either by sending us your information to update the site (via online forms or at database@xrmust.com), or by sponsoring us. The site has an online fund to which you can contribute. We’re also open to all kinds of partnerships. Although XRMust is intended to remain a largely free project, over the coming months we’ll be rolling out new ways for you to promote your projects and events.

In the coming weeks, the XRMust team will be covering the SXSW (USA), CPH:DO X (Denmark) and Thessaloniki (Greece) festivals. To bring you the very best in VR/AR/MR content …. !

Enjoy!

Mathieu
