Cyborg Dating

VIRTUAL REALITY | SERIOUS GAME | NARRATIVE DESIGN

- Q: What does the future look like?   A: I could tell you, but I could also show you.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Although VR is increasingly a mobile experience with people being able to move across a room, our participants experienced a walk through physical reality. A set-up that would be impossible to realised based on whatever thinkable sensors, but introducing a human guide enabled this possibility and it was the trigger to further explore a specific genre: "VR4two".

INTERESTING FACTS

The "Cyborg Dating" project is a co-creation between artists Sander Veenhof and Rosa Frabsnap, first launched at the Impakt festival in Utrecht in 2014 and recently a version "2.0" was launched at the Ruhr Triennale.
