WALLPAPER
USA-based computer engineer and innovator PJ Sanders returns to his remote family home in the UK following the death of his elderly mother. His agenda: to close the place down and sell it. But not before he employs an experimental device he’s been working on, primed to help him uncover the history behind one particular room in the house – a room that has remained locked since his childhood.

WALLPAPER is an interactive and immersive piece of digital fiction that has been exhibited in the UK at Bank Street Arts Gallery in Sheffield as a largescale projection and as part of the Being Human Festival of the Humanities 2016 in Virtual Reality. Funded by Arts Council England and the Arts and Humanities Research Council, it forms part of the Reading Digital Fiction research project led by Dr Alice Bell at Sheffield Hallam University. Reading Digital Fiction aims to raise public awareness of and engagement with digital fiction by analysing the way that readers respond, applying empirical methods and cognitive theory. Through its accessible storyline, strong visuals and immersive atmosphere, WALLPAPER has engaged non-academic audiences online, through live events and within gallery settings.

Nightmares for Children
“Nightmares for Children” is a found-footage virtual reality installation with a fictional backbone and original soundscape created for Oculus Rift with touch. The viewer/reader will be immersed in 360 video with VR assets and 2D video as overlays and will navigate through a series of dreamy horrors in different emotional registers using the intuitive Oculus touch interface. The piece allows for a very small child’s voice and infant storytelling to sound fully, but at the same time is crafted as a meditation on the imagery in children’s dreams and what it might trigger in the adult imagination - the authors’ hands are apparent in the way the sometimes banal horror of the dreamscapes extends and escalates. “Nightmares for Children” also constitutes an e-lit experiment in the Rift guided by the premise that personal VR headsets enabling immersive electronic literature might constitute ideal dream machines. Tech requirements: we will bring a laptop and Oculus RIFT.
