Disruption, a virtual reality experience exploring inner-city construction scenes as part of the Melbourne City DNA exhibition.
Disruption VR was created for the City of Melbourne, for their City DNA exhibition at Melbourne Knowledge Week 2019. The 7-minute experience asks users to walk in the shoes of three different characters during a busy scene of construction on Southbank boulevard.
Throughout the experience the participant hears the internal thoughts and feelings of the characters that they embody, while interacting with the environment to propel the story forward. Made in Unity for HTC Vive.
Made possible by the talented people at Studio Bento, Paperticket Studios and Dead on Sound.
