Information
Extraordinary People, Extraordinary Places is an in-home 6Dof episodic VR format. We are developing a number of episodes. Each one is 10-15 minutes long and lets you navigate an unforgettable place with people who are involved in environmental preservation. Our first prototyped episode, 'Buried In The Rock', takes you into the world of Tim and Pam Fogg, speleologists who compare cave exploration to setting foot on another planet. Bringing together stunning lidar scanning, powerful audio testimony and responsive soundscapes, it transports you to one of the Earth's fragile places as you accompany them on journeys where they investigate past and future climates.
