High-tech art spheres will mushroom along the North Bund in Hongkou District during the “Future 1KM” digital art and cultural tourism festival which begins on September 25.

The cluster will include 21 colorful “eggs,” which create experiences of the future, blending nature, dance, culture, art and game design with 5G technology, somatosensory interaction and virtual reality, organizers said yesterday.

One of the spheres will be a paradise of multidimensional entertainment blending art and high-tech.

Artist Android Jones’ work “Samskara” will debut in China in one of the eggs.

Director Lin Shusen will use a mechanical arm and dancers in a story about humans and machinery in the future.

In another egg — “Bullet Time” — the classic scenes in science-fiction films such as “The Matrix” and “Blade Runner” will be replicated.

The festival runs through October 7 in association with the Shanghai International Cultural Device Expo.

“This display will add brilliance to the night view of the Bund and the beautiful scenery of the Huangpu River,” said Wang Wei, counselor for the Shanghai Administration of Culture and Tourism.
