Most people have never seen anything like it!
DENVER (PRWEB)
November 28, 2018
Soundscape VR presented the world’s first virtual reality music stage at the Suwannee Hulaween Music Festival October 26-28, 2018.
After successful installation at Burning man, Soundscape VR, created by Groove Science Studios, Inc., brought its cutting-edge VR music experience to Florida and dazzled festival-goers as they entered a surreal, interactive and explorable virtual world of music and light. Live music was streamed simultaneously to the audio-responsive VR worlds and the on-stage sound system, as gamers created the visual experience for spectators via 120-inch projection screens.
Over the three days of the festival, thousands of Hulaween attendees had the opportunity to experience the first virtual reality activation of its kind. Consistent lines of people waiting for the chance to enter the Soundscape VR world were a regular sight; dance, laugh and enjoy the community of fellow festival-goers as they cheered on their friends’ protests projected on the big screen. Each player seemed to take a different path to explore the world, with many eventually removing the helmet to immediately return to the back of the line for another round.
As the rhythm of the bass sent waves of light rushing through the virtual world, players took to the skies to explore their new realities; fireworks, paint and names scribbled in the sky. A world would exist deep within a moving nebula of infinite scale, following it on an icy peak bathed in the glow of the Northern Lights. As one player created a cyclone of embers inside a crystalline cave, the next launched a fire hose of light, bombarding a distant planet.
“We were very happy to have the opportunity to host Soundscape VR at this year’s show.
Suwannee Hulaween Festival, â€said Andrew Carroll, producer of the festival’s“ Spirit Lake â€. “What a unique and exciting experience to enter the world of Soundscape VR! Every time I stopped at the facility there were lines of people waiting to venture into this out of this world experience. Most people have never seen anything like it! Hope we can get them back next year. “
Soundscape VR started in 2013 as a vision of a new way to bring people closer to their favorite music, empowering artists and users. The company will later unveil the world’s first VR music location at Burning Man, becoming one of the most immersive art experiences of this illustrious event. The software has continued to advance as the business has grown, now launching its festival tour where fans engage in an audiovisual sound adventure synchronized between two realities; a fantastic world of light and sound beyond their wildest dreams.
“No other project could be as exciting and satisfying to me as the creation of Soundscape VR. Being innovators of the next evolution in music, seeing how much love music fans have for us, inspires everything we do. Every time someone takes the helmet off and tells us what just happened is the most amazing experience of their entire life; it’s all worth it, â€says Eric Ryan Alexander, CEO and Founder of Soundscape VR.
