ORACLE and SACRIFICE in the virtual woods (macOS)

ORACLE and SACRIFICE in the virtual woods
a digital fantasy through 5 landscapes 

this virtual world with 5 landscapes was initiated by a proposition of Joana Zabielska -as a participating choir Performer- to Claudia Bosse to 3D scan elements of her performance ORACLE and SACRIFICE in the woods. this initial act started a long process of experimentation and the question of how to compose or recompose a space-related analogue performance through the viennese woods as an exploration through a digital landscape.

here you find 5 composed virtual environments which are interrelated (but run separately) connected and offer to find its own ways through the thicket as a visitor- a comparable experience as a visitor in the prater performance; but here it becomes a fantastic forest made by different medias, dimensions, textures and constellations made by 3D objects and videos, and videos of the performance, connected by audionarratives. the sounds of the original audio tour through the prater woods were the inspiration of the spatial creation while rethinking motives, texts, dimensions, textures, perspectives, spatial dramaturgy and time for and within the digital space. you are invited to create your individual exploration and combinations within the 5 digital landscapes.

this is a virtual re-creation based on the performance for a forest landscape using the dramaturgy and experience of a deeply space related performance thought further as a digital fantasy for the virtual space.
this is not a documentation. it's a digital composition offered to reimagine landscape, woods and ORACLE and SACRIFICE.

to experience each landscape, download the .zip-file (click on the download link below the video-trailers), extract all to a target folder. for an immersive experience use headphones.
