AYAHUASCA KOSMIK JOURNEY
Audio Fiction
Information
AYAHUASCA Kosmik Journey is a Virtual Reality film in which participants are immersed in visions triggered by a dose of ayahuasca. Through the use of Virtual Reality, this experience hopes to stay faithful to the original Shipibo tradition of consuming this plant as a transformative and meditative ritual. As such, the psychedelic journey will be guided by an indigenous South American shaman who Motion sensors in the headset will allow the system to keep track of the user’s movement and posture and react accordingly. The visions will either intensify or diminish, ensuring that the film will not be too intense nor too unstimulating. Filmed in 360°, AYAHUASCA Kosmik Journey is conceived for HTC Vive, Oculus, or Playstation VR and can be viewed as a 360 ͒ video
