Shared Reality Experience
Step inside SXSW London as a navigable hybrid environment.
This tour now has a clean APVR stage. The page sets only the parent height and leaves the plugin to control its own player, controls, thumbnails and canvas.
Double-tap the red icon to activate motion sensing. Make sure you tap Allow when the prompt appears saying “pryntd.xyz would like to Access Motion and Orientation”. It brings the experience to life and allows you to look around hands-free.
What is SXSW London?
Austin’s convergence culture, rebuilt for East London.
SXSW began in Austin, Texas and evolved into one of the world’s most influential festivals for creativity, technology, music, film, innovation and entrepreneurship.
SXSW London brings that convergence into Shoreditch, turning the neighbourhood into a living laboratory where ideas are tested, partnerships are formed and the future is debated across technology, artificial intelligence, music, film, fashion, gaming, XR, venture capital, startups, creators, policymakers and global brands.

The problem with temporary experiences
Most extraordinary moments vanish.
Pop ups disappear. Installations are dismantled. Exhibitions close. Brand activations end. Cultural moments become memories.
For people unable to attend because of disability, distance, cost, caring responsibilities or work commitments, those moments may never be experienced at all. This creates fragmentation: a world where participation depends on physical presence.

Pryntd changes that
An accessibility first AI powered intelligent immersive technology platform.
Pryntd converges AI, accessibility, immersive technology, digital twins, hybrid experiences, XR, real time communication and browser native infrastructure into a single platform.
Every experience can become persistent, accessible, hybrid, interactive, searchable, shareable and measurable.

Real Time Presence
Last year: Ray-Ban Meta x SXSW London
Shared Reality in Ely’s Yard.
Pryntd captured the Ray-Ban Meta experience in Ely’s Yard, showing how a temporary activation can become a persistent immersive environment.
Visitors could physically experience the activation. People anywhere in the world could explore it digitally. Disabled audiences gained greater access. The experience could continue long after the activation ended.
This year we are going further
2026 experiences will become navigable shared realities.
Pryntd will once again document, capture and transform SXSW London experiences into immersive hybrid environments.
Startup showcases, creative exhibitions, music activations, technology demonstrations, AI showcases, brand experiences, cultural moments, networking spaces and Shoreditch landmarks will not simply be recorded. They will become places people can return to, explore and share.
Why Shared Reality matters
An event is already a shared reality.
It is a unified system where people, space and systems converge across physical and digital environments.
Historically, physical audiences attended while remote audiences watched. Pryntd bridges that divide, enabling participation, presence, accessibility, inclusion, discovery and collaboration for everyone.
Accessibility first
Designed around people, not the other way round.
The UK has more than 16 million disabled people, and more than 1 billion disabled people live globally. Physical and digital barriers continue to exclude people from culture, innovation and opportunity.
Pryntd’s AI infrastructure is designed to adapt experiences around individual needs rather than forcing people to adapt around technology.
Captions and audio description
Content becomes easier to understand across hearing, vision, language and attention needs.
Adaptive interfaces
Experiences can respond to individual access needs through personalised digital layers.
Hybrid participation
Digital twins and browser native infrastructure open access beyond the venue.
SXSW London through every stakeholder

The future of Shared Reality
Language models understand text. Pryntd is building models that understand human experience.
Pryntd is building models that understand human experience across physical and hybrid environments where people gather.
The future belongs to organisations that can bridge physical and digital participation into a single intelligent environment. We call this Shared Reality.
Final call
