The Contrast or illusion

We are exposed to evaluations every day. The norm by which they are made is usually out of our hands.

The story focuses on evaluation and the space that emerges when we are being judged. What do people face in the contemporary world, surrounded by evaluation mechanisms from all sides? Why is there, so little diversity in terms of thinking in the highest authorities who look at us and evaluate us, especially when we want to grow, go further? Is every element influencing the evaluation truly systematized, or is the final outcome in our everyday lives a more random result made by favourable or negative moments or situations in which we find ourselves, usually without control over them? This VR experience revolves around the contrast that arises when the participant enters the virtual space. The role and position of the viewer as an observer and evaluator in the real space undergo a change. In the virtual narrative, the recipient-user becomes the object of observation and evaluation by 16 virtual characters. Through a random algorithm that influences the behaviour of the characters, the viewer can be accepted or expelled from the environment.

Control Room

Singer/songwriter Eli Fretter’s manager, Gill, has booked him into a state of the art studio space, in an attempt to encourage him to leave his traditional sensibilities and penchant for acoustic music and analog recording techniques behind, instead taking his place in the digital landscape of modern, electronic, music.

The night before his booking, Eli finds himself stranded in the studio with the strange receptionist, who insists that, with nowhere else to go, he spend the night in one of their live-rooms. Things take a surreal and nightmarish turn for Eli as reality appears to bend and distort, transporting him to-and-fro from the studio to a mysterious music venue and eventually to a dungeon, followed by a monstrous cloaked figure. Able to trust neither the eerie receptionist nor his controlling manager Gill, Eli discovers an otherworldly connection between his rapidly mutating body and the studio’s electronic equipment, which builds into a shocking climax that goes out with a flash.
