TRAILER
Experience The Shared Individual: a virtual reality performance and collective
teletransportation apparatus.
The Shared Individual is a groundbreaking performance mixing film, performing arts and technological trickery with virtual reality. Bombina Bombast, together with Danish filmstudion Makropol, created a piece that lets you see the world with someone else’s eyes. Where would you like that someone to take you?
The performance begins with two performers presenting a special camera mounted on a helmet. From this apparatus a first person live-stream is fed from anyone who wears it straight into the VR-headsets worn by the 25 people in the audience. What follows is an out of body experience where nothing is seen from your usual point of view.
"Although we have been exploring the undefined space between documentary art, interactive technology and live performance since 2007, the Shared Individual was one of the most visceral and unforgettable works we ever had the pleasure to present at IDFA DocLab"
