1. The Hollow Reach

   The Hollow Reach is a choice-based virtual reality (VR) experience built on becoming posthuman to overcome the trauma of emotional and physical loss. What at first appears to be an adventure game turns out to be an exploration of psychological and physical recovery, not a retreat from reality but a coming to terms with it. In this interactive puzzle game, virtual reality offers a space of recuperation through adaptation and prostheses. In this piece, the player progresses from the human to the post-human only by letting go of their notions of what is and is not under their control to encounter a life augmented and transformed by the digital.

2. Tenure Track: A Critical Simulation Game

   Tenure Track is a postmodernist critique of 21st-century academia in the form of a simulation game. In the vein of satirical games like Cow Clicker—a product of “carpentry,” or a strategy for creating philosophical, creative work, according to its designer Ian Bogost—Tenure Track also borrows game mechanics from popular puzzle simulators like Papers, Please, merging the finite potentiality of a critical text with the lightheartedness and non-prescriptiveness of play. Additionally, the simulation game as a genre harkens back to philosophical toys of the 19th century, such as the thaumatrope, the purpose of which was demystification through wonderment. The proposed poster would include imagery from the game, as well as links to interactive components (gameplay footage, demos) and brief descriptions of the mechanics and concept of the game.

3. Apart Samen

   Deze VR-ervaring van schrijver-muzikant Micha Hamel en maker Demian Albers voelt zowel groots als intiem. Groots omdat je in deze zogenaamde ‘room scale VR’ vrij rond kunt wandelen door de driedimensionale tekeningen, op het ritme van de woorden. Intiem omdat je in Apart Samen letterlijk in een liefdesrelatie duikt die op de klippen dreigt te lopen. Door de speels getekende tableaus en de intuïtieve interactie beleef je de jeugdherinneringen van de geliefden die tegenpolen blijken. Als volwassenen hebben ze hun eigen gevoelens en verwachtingen, maar welke kies jij om aan te horen of te onderzoeken? Door deze keuzevrijheid en het feit dat je nooit alles kunt meekrijgen, wordt hun liefdesgeschiedenis voor de bezoeker een subjectieve én intuïtieve ervaring.
