The International Governmental Panel on CAPITALISM.

Useless Press.

Sam’s website.

Argentinian transmedia documentary.

Project site (yes it’s untranslated, but you can still get a sense of it).

I think this is recent. Either way its a fun way to cruise around if you’ve already got a cardboard. I found it was fun to play on highway 1

Anyone have a change to go to this at Convergence?

VR project by Marshmallow Laser Feast, where you can experience non-human vision, seeing a simulation of what a forest looks like to animals.  They utilized LiDAR, CT Scanning, and 360 aerial drone filming to capture the footage.

More on the project here.

First installment of Sense of Presence.

Not quite sure if this counts as VR or AR or something else. 2 soccer teams and the refs are all wearing VR headsets and can only see the field from a shared viewpoint, which is a bird’s eye view of the field. Interesting in the way it approaches networked headsets,  forced perspectives, and physical interaction / movement while using a headset.
