FEDORA Prizes

We are proud to celebrate YUM!, winner of the FEDORA Digital Prize 2025, supported by Kearney and in collaboration with the IMZ International Music + Media Centre, which will have its world premiere on 20 August 2026 at the Bregenzer Festspiele.

Led by Studio M.A.R.S. and created by Wen Liu, YUM! is a participatory XR music theater that blends immersive dining with grotesque beauty, dark humor, and pioneering tech-woven narratives. Step into a vivid, absurd universe where surreal storytelling and uncanny scenarios unfold. YUM! delves into climate change, food shortages, class, identity, and self-obsession, offering a multi-sensory spectacle that reflects on the human condition in exaggerated yet eerily familiar ways—all within a world of absurdism and authentic artificiality.
