How would you create an experience in VR? What works in VR and what doesn’t? When working with VR glasses you are confronted with an evolving medium that hasn’t found its language, yet
In this class you will be introduced to the boundaries and experiment with the possibilities of VR. You will be working with Unity 3D, the HTC Vive VR Glasses, 360 Video and spatial audio
This course is for MFAMaster of Fine Arts – graduate students will receive this degree students only who already have experience in working with 3D Software
Planned is an excursion to Panorama Bad Frankenhausen as well as a participation at a Symposium at the HKW (Haus der Kulturen der Welt) in Berlin in cooperation with the chair of Experimental Radio
In order to successfully participate you will have to develop and document your own project on the GMUGestaltung medialer Umgebungen WikiHaiwaiian for ''fast'' (not an acronym). It is the name for a hypertext system for websites where the user may not only read the content but is also able to change it instantaneously through the browser.. Also, regularly attend to the sessions and participation is mandatory.
