In Bright Axiom – Trailer

KITHEWelcome to the House of Latitude, where absolute discretion is demanded in exchange for entry into a mysterious social experiment in the form of an elaborate immersive experience. Drawing a community of curiosity seekers, this secret society becomes a way of life for some, putting increasing pressure on the organizers to maintain this sophisticated and fantastical parallel world.

From the minds who inspired AMC’s upcoming series Dispatches From Elsewhere, In Bright Axiom weaves an intriguing cautionary tale about the unforeseen consequences of embracing the unknown. Followers of Meow Wolf, Sleep No More, Ingress and other immersive & augmented reality entertainment should take note.  The film also features never-before-seen discourse from the mesmerizing hip-hop polymath, Rammellzee and original music by Juston Robbins, with additional songs from Isan, Tickles, and ü-Ziq. 

Director Spencer McCall has spent the last ten years orchestrating socio-reengineering and public hoax-prank performance art pieces. An avid fan of the Yes Men, McCall began by participating in Improv Everywhere inspired events, “plant” based roles in The Go Game, and location-based performances with Atmos-theater. In 2009, he became a co-creator of the Jejune Institute; a citywide alternate reality game in San Francisco that lasted three years and “inducted” over 10,000 unknowing participants. McCall took his experience working with Jejune and turned it into an award-winning documentary The Institute. His film is currently being remade into a series on a major television network.

In Bright Axiom will have its world premiere at DOC NYC 2019 on the 7th of November.
