VR Collider works with time, public space and history. It examines the iconic places of the political history of the 20th and 21st century through the idea of collisions. It deals with events in public spaces that influenced a subsequent historical development.
A virtual environment built as a platform that flies over planet Earth and captures the vibrations of time-space, presented by fragmented video panoramas that are revolved with acceleration in an art collider, activating a mechanism of audio-visual jumps, where some fragments can be substituted by archival videos followed by visual transmutations.
It is a visual narration of political flashpoints.
The VR Collider project is dealing with the events that have formed the world and raises the question: is a person a particle in the system of accelerators of global forces, or the energy of interaction investigating new values, new forms of thought and new ways of existence in the world — insinuating that another world is possible?
