What do we leave behind? As time passes, these questions grow louder. Ghost Towns is Robin’s upcoming augmented reality concert exploring transience, community, and legacy – inspired by his journeys to different Ghost Towns around the world.
For this preview he will share personal stories around the theme and his journey to Pyramiden, an abandoned Soviet ghost town near the North Pole. He will perform excerpts from his haunting new composition while you will be invited to experience the first augmented reality preview. The full performance will premiere in 2027.
Please be aware that this preview requires you to wear a VR headset and walk through the space.
Ticket sales is according to a ‘pay what you want’ principle.
