Comfortless
In 1969, a brothel was established exclusively for the US military near the US Air Force Base in Kunsan, South Korea. About 500 residential units were built and “American Town” corporation was established with approval and support from the Korean government. The women recruited from all over the country were called “US military comfort women” by the authorities. American Town grew to be a small self-sustaining city that provided US soldiers with whatever convenience they desired: currency exchange, culinary pleasures, and sex. One thousand American soldiers visited every night.
Shot on the actual site, Comfortless is a 360-3D cinematic immersive experience of American Town during its heyday in the 1980s. The VR film starts in the present time, where the town is empty and silent. When the night falls, however, various sounds from the past begin to fill the space.
Viewers traverse this uncanny deserted town, guided by a ghost and the ambient sounds and voices from its past.
Comfortless offers an immersive experience of the daily routine of American Town, creating an essential archive of the past.Martijn Holtkamp - 18.03.2024 - 09:57

My Name is O90
In the year 2047, the robot dog O90 equipped with artificial intelligence wanders the alleys, having been abandoned. For many years, O90 has wandered the city, seeking out recharging cables that allow him to steal energy.
One rainy night, the AI pet dog wakes up with his charge running low. He heads to the city to recharge himself before daybreak. He passes through a long tunnel, thinking as usual that this could be his last day wandering the city. O90’s data was not erased, so he continues to remember his friend.
A robot such as O-90 studies and comes to desire memories, a heart and emotions.Martijn Holtkamp - 18.03.2024 - 10:02

Body of Mine
Body of Mine allows you to experience gender dysphoria by inhabiting the body of another gender. Combining body, face, and eye tracking that allows you to completely transform into someone else with real audio interviews of trans individuals, this full-body VR experience takes you on an intimate exploration of gender, identity, and what it means to be a human being.
With the rise in hate crimes, transphobia, and anti-trans legislation, we stand at the forefront, using immersive technology as a tool for empathy and understanding. We believe full immersion has the potential to radically transform hearts and minds. Body of Mine is an embodiment of this belief. Within the privacy of a headset, gender queer individuals are able to explore their gender in a way that may not be safe in the real world, while cisgender audiences can more intimately and deeply connect to trans interviews. We seek to build a safe space for connection, exploration, and transformation, when a safe space in the real world can be hard to find.

Floating With Spirits
In this cinematic VR, magical stories are told by two young Mazatec, indigenous sisters Jocelynne and Jaquelyne, who recall the ancestral knowledge and mystical cosmogony that their shaman grandmother used to share with them, in the misty mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico. Their village lies amidst giant Ceiba trees and rivers full of life. Nature breathes and, within, preserves the memories of this community. The landscape that surrounds them is full of knowledge. While preparing for the Day of the Dead, they share the stories of their ancestors. During these special days, the spirits of their loved ones descend into the world of the living, guided by the light of the candles and the glow of the Cempasuchil flowers on the altars. The girls’ imagination transports us into the world of the spirits of their ancestors and the spirits of nature. A shamanic dance ritual opens a portal through which we can discover the secret worlds of four spirits of nature. Each spirit has its own secret that it will share with us to enable us to make a new connection with the ancestral Mazatec knowledge.
