A Live Multi-Location VR Experience Connecting Audiences across the Globe
Welcome
Enter an experience between light & darkness, rave & ritual, and digital & physical realities – Gloaming, a 1-hour immersive live performance.
Two groups gather on opposite sides of the world, one at dawn and one at dusk. Making their way through a physical multi-sensory art installation, the audience is given VR headsets to see a hybrid world and conjure new ways of exploring virtual & physical touch with each other.
Their guide, a live motion-capture dancer, brings audiences together in a party like no other in this multi-reality adventure in togetherness.
