You're an animal.... The VR space is going to add a new form of ecotourism.... be like an animal & see & hear as an animal sees & hears in its environment


At Sundance, 2016

A revolutionary medium, in more ways than one...

Underneath the matte black, sculptural headsets of VR experience 'In the Eyes of an Animal,' users transform from fish, to frog, to dragonfly, moving under water and along forest floors to experience the world at angles humans will never see.

"It delves you into an empathy with nature. The way [animals] see the world is completely different from the way we see it with our eyes, our ears, our touch," said Barnaby Steel, who co-created the VR experience with Robin McNicholas for their studio, Marshmallow Laser Feast.

"You build a connection to this thing, this living thing, all of these things that make it so unique," he said. "Through that connection, by experiencing it, the empathy kicks in and you start to value it."
