How much of your physical freedoms are you willing to compromise for an exciting digital experience?

Using uniquely uncomfortable touch detection and a bespoke headset for movement-based control, SoulNet invites up to three players to engage in a virtual experience together. Physically separated, with their hands stuck in goo and their gaze glued to the projetion screen, audience members parttake in a rewarding abstract game that demands their constant and continued attention. At what point will they have enough?

Originally presented at Perspective Shift, a group show of interactive experiences criticallly engaging with creative technology at Superfluous Gallery at Arebyte, the installation went on to be selected for Escapade Escape Arcade by Oubliette, a group show exploring games and experiences that use novel, bespoke physical controllers, at Enter in London, UK.
