From Home is a project that captures the experience of ‘home’ as it is lived and articulated, presenting these experiences with digital technologies that are both reflective and illuminating.
For Brighton Digital Festival, Moving Pictures Theatre (MPT) and Language Umbrella Media (LUM), with support from Wired Sussex’s FuseBox Innovation Lab, invite you to immerse yourself in the From Home project, and contribute your own thoughts on ‘home’.
From Home was originally conceived as a piece that uses conventional video collected from a broad range of people talking about their experiences of lockdown. From an award winning film about domestic violence in India, to a film about childbirth in Margate; from self-isolation in a garden shed, to writing messages in pebbles on a beach and singing songs of hope in Canada. For these prototyping sessions, the footage will be combined with 360 filmed content, 3D scanned environments, and web-based VR, to create an interactive and immersive experience.
Programmed by Lighthouse, supported through Digital Democracies, a programme led by Threshold Studios.
The sessions start every 15 mins and run for approximately 40 mins, and are limited to two people per session. If you’ve not experienced immersive tech or VR before, the crew at FuseBox will be on hand to safely guide you through the session.
