Concept artwork of an original virtual performer on a bronze and turquoise stage
Original virtual performers · A SOVA venture

Virtual voices.
Real presence.

An original character. An immersive stage. A performance that can respond within a carefully directed world.

Prototype and partner discovery. Hero image is concept artwork.
No public show, artist partnership or ticket sale is announced.

01 / The experience

A character with a world.
A stage with a pulse.

Character

NOVA-01

Our working concept for an original virtual performer: an intimate, futuristic presence with a defined visual identity and directed dialogue. The final voice and repertoire will be commissioned and rights-cleared.

Stage

Presence through production

Evaluate transparent LED or a suitable scrim/projection system alongside controlled lighting. Haze and lasers are optional and depend on venue approval, competent operators and sightlines.

Interaction

Directed, with human control

The proposed persona runtime selects approved responses and coordinates scene cues. Moderation, operator takeover and pre-rendered playback remain part of the show design.

These are stage display methods. We do not claim a free-space volumetric hologram, a live autonomous artist or a deployed AI runtime.

02 / Working rehearsal prototype

Take the controls.
See the boundaries.

NOVA-01 / REHEARSALCUE 01 / READY

Operator console · scripted demo

This prototype runs in your browser. Responses are scripted, visuals are illustrative, and no music, microphone, AI service or venue equipment is connected. Hold pauses progression; fallback bypasses interactive dialogue. Export contains only this session’s cue record.

03 / Partner pilot

One performer.
One venue. One measured test.

Feasibility study

Proposed €3,000–€5,000 engagement to scope the character, display method, sightlines, rights and a practical prototype with an AV partner.

15–20 minute pilot

One original performer, rehearsed playback and a limited set of moderated audience inputs. Indicative €15,000 production envelope, subject to supplier quotations.

Evidence to continue

Target at least 95% of agreed scripted cues delivered, measure response latency, and seek a paid booking or sponsor continuation. These targets have not been demonstrated in a live venue.

Figures are planning estimates, exclude VAT and are not bookable offers. No venue, supplier, funding or partner commitment is represented.

04 / Pilot economics

A show needs
a viable production plan.

Explore gross ticket revenue and the funding gap. The base pilot model follows our existing partner brief. Ticket revenue alone does not cover it.

Illustrative gross scenario

Tickets + sponsorship
Planned production
Gap / surplus before deductions

Excludes ticket VAT, fees, refunds and any additional costs. Sponsorship may have separate tax treatment. A positive result is not net profit or a financing commitment.

05 / Build the first production

Bring a venue.
Bring a point of view.

Rights and readiness

Use an original character and documented rights for music, voice, likeness and visual assets. An AI-generated concept image does not clear rights for a repertoire or voice. Technical rehearsal and venue approvals precede any announced performance.

Exploratory contact with LASA Berlin is not a partnership. We are seeking an AV team, a suitable venue and a pilot sponsor.
