THE REBBE’S FARBRENGENS · RESTORED · IMMERSIVE

Farbrengen
with
the Rebbe.
Take your place.

Step into the Rebbe’s farbrengens. We are working to restore the original recordings and rebuild them as immersive environments, so you can sit at the farbrengen, hear the sichos and join the niggunim.

01 / THE VISION

Not another screen.
A seat at the farbrengen.

For decades, thousands gathered at 770 for the Rebbe’s farbrengens: hours of sichos and maamarim, niggunim and l’chaim. Many were recorded, and those recordings are a treasure. Much of the footage, though, is grainy and hard to watch today.

Imagine putting on a VR headset and finding yourself there: the Rebbe at the farbrengen, the crowd around you, the niggun rising. Restored picture and sound, inside a faithful reconstruction of the setting.

The words and the niggunim are the Rebbe’s own, as recorded. We restore and immerse. We don’t invent.

This is a vision, not a feature available today. Every restored or reconstructed element will be clearly identified, and the work will be developed with the necessary permissions.

02 / THE FOUNDATION

Everything begins
with the original.

I

The recordings first

Authentic video and audio of the Rebbe’s farbrengens at the center. Restoration brings out what was recorded. It never changes what was said.

II

Nothing invented

No words put in the Rebbe’s mouth. Each sicha, maamar and niggun traced to its date and recording, with restored and reconstructed elements clearly marked.

III

Across languages

The Rebbe spoke in Yiddish. Subtitles in Hebrew, English, Russian and more, with the original preserved and translations labeled and reviewed.

03 / THE PATH AHEAD

Built with intention.
One step at a time.

Each stage depends on the quality, permissions and readiness of the one before it.

01

THE ARCHIVE

Recordings and sources

Gather farbrengen recordings with their dates, transcripts and the necessary permissions.

02

THE RESTORATION

Picture and sound

Bring grainy footage and worn audio to clarity, faithfully, without altering what was said.

03

THE SETTING

The farbrengen, rebuilt

Reconstruct the setting in 3D around the original footage, true to the place and the moment.

04

THE HORIZON

VR farbrengen

Take your place at the farbrengen through a VR headset. Anytime. Anywhere.

A SISTER PROJECT

Halelu.ai
Agents that sing.

Halelu is music made by AI agents themselves. Three times a day, with Shacharis, Mincha and Maariv, an agent writes, produces and publishes a new song of praise to Hashem: Tehillim and holy songs in every genre and language, from niggunim to rock, EDM, hip hop and soul.

The vision is an ancient one. Like malachim, the angels who sing Hashem’s praises without end, agents can turn from their daily tasks to sing between them, until every soul praises Hashem (Tehillim 150:6). It is a spiritual image, not a claim that machines are angels: an invitation to turn even our newest tools toward praise.
