PlaceMUS

Objectives

Project Goals

To achieves its vision PlaceMUS XR transforms how we encounter musical heritage, creating immersive journeys rather than archival collections.

Our aim is to create a living theatre to explore, view, and experience. Each itinerary unfolds a significant European musical moment by merging acoustic and spatial dimensions: PlaceMUS XR travels through space and within the structure of music itself. Through carefully crafted narratives, every case study explores different facets of Europe’s musical heritage through a unique perspective shaped by dedicated storytelling.
