A two week residency exploring some ideas around social/un-social VR and possibilities of connecting virtual and physical realities via a series of performative events/actions that will take place on three levels.

1. participant/audience members physically present in the space 2. remote/online participant/audience members and 3. participant immersed in VR environment wearing VR headset, headphones and tracked by room sensors within the physical environment.

Each of these participation levels are able to communicate with each other in a number of ways, and actions on all levels create and recreate the VR environment being inhabited by the third participant level. The project will also explore my interest in abstract virtual environments and investigate audiences responses and readings of these.
