Winners Announced at the Second Edition of the Pluribus Multimedia Fest

The winners of the second edition of the "Pluribus Multimedia Fest", the multimedia and interactive festival conceived and directed by artist Annalaura di Luggo (realized with the support of the Ministry of Culture), were announced on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, during the final event of the festival at the JUS Museum in Palazzo Calabritto (via Calabritto, 20). The festival is dedicated to experimental short films, stimulating global correspondences among artists and overcoming geographic, cultural, and age barriers, offering immersive experiences in the audiovisual field. Numerous works were submitted from all over the world: "multi-screen" short films with a narrative development spread across four screens; the three winning works were projected in the "Pluribus" multimedia installation by Annalaura di Luggo: a large cube of mirrors inside which four large screens allow the viewer a unique immersive experience. The three works will also be distributed on the American streaming platform Cinee. "The 'Pluribus Multimedia Fest' is an enabling tool to foster social integration and intercultural and intergenerational dialogue by promoting learning that can intertwine each artistic and cultural heritage with the dynamics of the present, to rewrite, each through their own abilities, a possible future. It was created as a stimulus for the new generations to experiment with a new model of audiovisual project production using digital communication languages and new technological-multimedia methodologies capable of keeping the user's attention high. In this case, 'Pluribus' from a 'hosting installation', becomes, at the same time, an element of interaction and a container of countless immersive and continuously renewable experiences, embracing fiction and documentary cinematography, classical and contemporary art, music, and animation up to the experimentation of VFX allowing the exploration of alternative worlds or enhancing tourist-territorial trajectories," explains Annalaura di Luggo. Pluribus is a permanent installation at the JUS Museum | Palazzo Calabritto in Naples, a dynamic and modern multipurpose space, on the border between conservation and innovation: a place where permanence and temporality are strategies of presentation and cultural offer. Not only: the JUS Museum combines Contemporary Arts with the professionalism of the Law Firm "Olindo Preziosi & Partners". Thanks to the sensitivity of Olindo Preziosi (lawyer and cultural promoter) the JUS Museum, located in one of the most prestigious buildings in Naples, is the ideal container where ideal relationships between arts and public are developed and sedimented. Exhibitions, performances, presentations, conferences, find in the JUS Museum the ideal container.
