Vector
Becca Weber, Joanna Cook, Danielle Lottridge | 2024 | Mixed Interactive | New Zealand
The work utilises avatars and custom-built audio-visual effects to emphasise embodied attention, presented through a 360 VR video and an immersive participatory installation. Vector 360 is a six-minute VR film offering viewers an 'inside out' perspective on dance creation, challenging traditional viewing habits. Accompanying the film is Vector: Interact, an installation encouraging participation through real-time responsive technology. Here, participants create their own choreography, guided by embodied awareness, and observe the digital effects they generate on a projected screen

Priyan Jayamaha | 2024 | AR Game | New Zealand
Waka Hourua is an educational board game for children to play and discover about the early Polynesian migration and navigation. Waka Hourua goes beyond traditional board games, integrating Augmented Reality to create an immersive and interactive play experience.
