Windows into Worlds is an audiovisual exhibition and installation showcasing new connections between performing arts and digital video. It includes original artistic research from Dr Ben Spatz's Judaica project alongside contemporary performance-based films by VestAndPage (Germany) and Studio Matejka (Poland), as well as a growing network of performers exploring video lab methods. These videos run alongside an "Open Lab" where the public is invited to explore audiovisual creation.

The first iteration of Windows into Worlds ran from 2-20 December 2019 at the Temporary Contemporary Market Gallery in Queensgate Market, Huddersfield (UK), welcoming more than 200 visitors. There was an opening event with Odeya Nini on Tuesday 3rd and a featured artist talk with VestAndPage on campus on Wednesday 11th. This exhibition was supported by the School of Music, Humanities, and Media and the School of Art, Design and Architecture at University of Huddersfield.
