Aether Immersive is an immersive-technology studio that designs and builds projection domes, projection mapping, VR and interactive installations, fabrication, digital content, and custom software for live events, festivals, brands, and museums.
We are a collective of dreamers and doers, fusing artistic vision with technological innovation to create extraordinary immersive experiences.
At Aether, we are more than just a company; we are a collective of dreamers and doers, a fusion of artistic minds and technological wizards.
United by our passion for creating the extraordinary, we specialize in immersive interactive installations, state-of-the-art projection domes, and innovative solutions.
Aether Immersive started as a software development partnership between Derrick Planz and Lewis Spadaro. As the work evolved, Derrick found himself drawn deeper into the world of live visuals and production - creating real-time experiences for music on stages, in warehouses, and at festivals. What began as a passion for visual storytelling quickly became something bigger.
Derrick joined forces with Glass Crane - Steven McCorry - and together they built Aether into a creative force that lives at the intersection of art and technology. Their shared conviction: that the most powerful experiences happen when creative vision and technical mastery are inseparable.
What worked on stages translated everywhere. Today, Aether brings that same energy and innovation to brands, museums, corporate clients, and public spaces - without ever losing the creative edge that started it all. We've always existed on the bleeding edge, and we intend to stay there.
We're not a dev shop that outsources design, or a creative agency that can't write code. Our team is a collective of specialists - every discipline under one roof, working in lockstep. When every skill lives in-house, nothing gets lost in translation. This is how we deliver a wide range of services without compromising quality on any of them.
Rooted in the philosophy of Electromineralism pioneered by Android Jones, we are students of the belief that technology is not a tool apart from art - it is a medium through which art evolves. That principle runs through everything we create.
Art and technology are not separate worlds - they never were. We exist to prove it.
None of what we do happens in a vacuum. We're incredibly fortunate to be surrounded by some of the most talented creative and engineering minds out there - people who push us to be better, who show up when it matters, and who genuinely care about the work as much as we do.
Our network isn't just a list of collaborators. These are our people - the artists, builders, technologists, and dreamers who make every project richer than what any of us could pull off alone.
