About Ed Lantz, President/CTO of Vortex Immersion Media
Visionary student of consciousness, Ed Lantz, President/CTO of Vortex Immersion Media, has realized a vision he received years ago. While still in his teens, Ed Lantz had a very clear vision of immersive dome spaces where performers were exploring the quantum ‘inner space movie,’ projecting their consciousness onto the dome, and transporting audiences into inner realms. While still in his youth, Lantz said he once had to choose between art and technology. Now, inside the dome, he’s doing both… “It’s a compelling experience,” he smiles. Visit their site.
