Based in California, Carlos’ role will initially focus on US region projects for HOLOPLOT’s ground-breaking X1 Matrix Array’s deployment across all sectors, bringing his knowledge of immersive environments and spatial audio applications to the fore.
Mosquera is enjoying the new challenges his role at HOLOPLOT brings. “When the X1 system was demoed to me, it was mind-blowing,” he says. “I was sure that I could use the experience I have from both my professional and personal activities to help develop it even further.” He emphasises that HOLOPLOT is an exciting company to be part of, with a vibrant culture, cutting-edge technology, and a distinct mindset.
“As a Senior Project Engineer, my role is nothing short of thrilling. X1 has a lot to offer for live entertainment and immersive projects alike and I look forward to bringing this innovative technology to new and exciting applications,” he continues. “Right now, the first and foremost project for me is helping to make sure that the MSG Sphere music and entertainment arena in Las Vegas sounds exceptional. We have thousands of X1 cabinets installed in Sphere, so the atmosphere is bound to be electrifying.”
Born in Venezuela, Mosquera has been passionate about music from a young age that saw him pursue a musical education, graduating with a B.A. in Sound Technology from the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) in the U.K.
After graduating, Mosquera immersed himself in music and sound technologies, working with esteemed organisations such as the L.A.

He developed ‘Guiding Sounds,’ an award-winning positional app for the visually impaired that provides real-time location information without internet connectivity. He also volunteers for Coachart.org, teaching children with serious illnesses about coding and music.
“My goal is to witness people experiencing sound in the way it was meant to be,” Mosquera explained. “I am driven to find new ways to enhance people’s experiences. It’s about enabling people to savour music authentically.
“HOLOPLOT provides a fresh pathway to achieve that. To truly comprehend the transformative power of HOLOPLOT, one must experience it first-hand.”
