Experience

Fractal(s) work(s) at room-scale

Immersive installations for museums and venues, fulldome films for planetariums, and virtual reality. Existing works license for exhibition and are re-mastered to your room; new work is made to commission.

01 — Immersive installation

For museums and immersive venues

Projection or LED surfaces across walls, floors and ceilings. The picture is re-composed to your exact geometry and the score re-mixed for your speaker layout.

Foreign Nature

2022 - Music by Ben Lukas Boysen

Foreign Nature is a fully immersive fractal environment. When micro mirrors macro — atom, cell, solar system — scale becomes impossible to read.

Geometric Properties

2021 - Music by David Levy

Through the creative digital expression of the endless iterations and multiple dimensions of fractals, Geometric Properties explores fundamental mathematical patterns to stimulate existential self reflection and emphasize the pure wonderment of being.

Recursive Reflections

2023 - Music by David Levy

Julius Horsthuis' Recursive Reflections projects us into an infinite fractal universe, where moving forward means diving into the unknown, embracing change.

02 - fulldome films

For planetariums and dome theatres

Built for the overhead frame rather than adapted to it, and delivered as fisheye masters at your dome's resolution. Available for programming worldwide, from short pieces to feature length.

Recombination

2023 - 47 min

Feature length - the longest work in the catalogue. Also released for VR.

Nadir

2026 - 10 min

Nadir, created for LED domes, drifts from architectural weight into a realm of shifting geometries that feels both deeply unfamiliar and curiously nostalgic.

Beyond Chaos

2024 - 45 min

You can find them anywhere, but yet they oft remain unseen: fractals. Take a deep dive into seemingly infinite structures and discover a new fascinating world.

03 - Virtual Reality

Recombination in VR

Recombination is the latest project from visionary fractal artist Julius Horsthuis. Realizing that the best way to enjoy his work is immersion, he collaborated with seven of his favorite musicians in order to create an abstract journey through music, space and mathematics.

04 - Adaptations

The same work in different rooms

Foreign Nature has been staged in a black-box museum, a nineteenth-century foundry, a Second World War submarine base and a former gasworks. Working from each venue's plan, the picture is re-rendered to that geometry and the score re-mixed for its speakers.
