1. A Place Called Ormalcy

   A Place Called Ormalcy is a digital fiction designed for, and developed in, Virtual Reality. It’s comprised of a text-based story made up of seven short Chapters housed in 3D/Virtual Reality environments that can be accessed via mobile devices, desktop PCs and via a large range of Virtual Reality hardware. This VR story was constructed with each chapter (comprised of 3D models, text, and audio) compiled using Sketchfab. In January 2019, A Place Called Ormalcy was shortlisted for the New Media Writing Prize and in December 2018 was also showcased at the Art Expo of the 2018 International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling in Dublin, Ireland (sponsored by Microsoft Ireland). Earlier in 2018, the project was also a finalist in the 2018 Queensland Literary Awards in the Digital Literature category.

2. Our Cupidity Coda

   There’s an aspect of current Virtual reality that underplays an emphasis on the personal, the poetic, the introspective, and the spaces that exist in between. Our Cupidity Coda seeks to address this by creating (what I term) a MicroVR Experience: a poetic snapshot of the life span of a romantic relationship, bridging the gap between the impersonal and the intimate. 

   The meat of the project is a set of poetic texts interspersed with 360 illustrative stills. The work is deliberately designed to partially echo the conventions from early film-making days (including no audio), making a viewer focus on text inserts, which are contrasted with having to move (turn in the 360 VR space) and view the 360 tableaus (a reflection of the theme underlying the work) to engage fully with the 360 illustration sections.

3. The Thing Tableau

   The Thing Tableau is a 3D/VR work conceived and designed in Virtual Reality. Its story unfolds through a digital narrative that can only be viewed online. The story references insomnia and the thoughts and language that can creep and reoccur when in this twilightish state.

   The project is designed for audience interaction through click-based annotations, and can be viewed in multiple ways: as a text-based narrative that unpacks when an audience member interacts with it, or as an automated playthrough (though it’s preferred that audience members get to interact with the model in a 3D or even VR space).

   The Thing Tableau is one of the works from the V[R]ignettes Microstory Series.
