The project aims to bring VR and dance together in the form of a performance. The study will look at the possibilities for multiple people to embody one entity together in a shared VR experience. The research questions mainly focus on aspects such as choreography, visual perspective in VR, play and real-time animation. The goal is to lay the foundation for an interactive public performance.
