SOLIPMISSION x ADE: Trailer

Art & VR meet in WeMakeVR & Dadara’s “Solipmission”

At Burning Man 2017, three people (one of which renowned Dutch artist Dadara) resided inside a giant black box for the duration of the festival, without seeing the outside world. They turned hundreds of conversations with “Burners” into an artpiece. A team of four VR- makers from WeMakeVR worked around the clock for a week to document these interactions and everything that happened inside and outside the Box. The goal of the project: “To explore the age-old question “What is Reality?”

After a year of working through countless hours of virtual reality data they are now ready to present the three-part result: a documentary about the people inside the box, a 360-documentary about the Burner’s view, and an interactive VR-installation which allows visitors to explore the stories behind the dozens of artworks captured in the artwork. Even though the physical artpiece is no more, the combination of these three artworks provides a unique experience that together forms the culmination of the Solipmission’s two-year journey.

The final result will be premiered on October 19th at Hotel Arena, as part of the ADE festival.
Initiators Avinash Changa (WeMakeVR) and Dadara will be present, as will the team who resided inside the box, and the team behind the three final pieces.
