New Dimensions Lab 2025 | 8th Edition: How Immersive Nonfiction Stories Are Made and Felt

The 8th edition of New Dimensions Lab unfolded as a space for slowing down, listening closely, and rethinking how nonfiction stories are made and felt. Hosted in South Africa and presented by Electric South, with support from Agog and the National Film and Video Foundation South Africa, the lab brought together African artists and creative technologists working at the edges of immersive and XR storytelling. Over the course of the week, ideas were tested, reshaped, shared, and reshared not in pursuit of spectacle, but through attention, care, mindfulness, and collaboration. This edition asked different questions. How do we tell stories that surround rather than instruct? How do immersive tools hold memory, intimacy, respect, and responsibility? To the artists and advisors who showed up with curiosity and openness, thank you for trusting the process and each other. To our funders, thank you for backing work that resists easy answers and invests in long-term creative futures shaped on the continent. We carry these conversations forward. #NewDimensionsLab #NDL2025 #ImmersiveNonfiction #XRStorytelling #AfricanStorytelling #CreativeProcess #ElectricSouth
