FLOAT LAND

Collaborative arm of two practices: Art + Interactivity

We are firm believers that when collaborations work, they work: They produce multifaceted, mature, complex, layered pieces. We work with musicians and other artists to create immersive environments and artwork, pulling from a range of influences from avant garde film, visual music, games, and music videos. We are currently working with Daedelus, Baths, RYAT, Slugabed, Mast, Kron, Kid606 and Angela Seo, (aka Hyunhye) of Xiu Xiu.

Created by Pierre Huyghe in collaboration with curator Anne Stenne, the exhibition transforms Punta della Dogana into a land of constant evolution, populated by human and non-human creatures.

“Liminal welcomes its visitors in a dark, mysterious and alien-like environment. Through the darkness, the beholder finds their own path in a space that is transformed by the artist into a land of constant evolution, populated by human and non-human creatures. Subjected to this process of hybridization - which is the transit through the show itself - the observer comes into contact with different and unknown life-forms.”

Loving this review of the Quest 3 headset and Stranger Things MR. Comfort is SO important!

"I could see people in the room as I was playing and see the walls. I could move around in my surroundings confidently...The same held true as I tried Stranger Things - a mixed reality game version of the hit Netflix series. I didn't feel sick at all."

Chris Cox, chief product officer at Meta, said that mixed reality "changes drastically how comfortable the [VR] experience is."

Stranger Things MR + VR as covered by + "But what really stood out about Stranger Things VR was the way the virtual world gradually overtook the real world throughout the course of my demo. I started out playing around with my powers in a real living room, but by the end of the demo, I was fully enveloped in the same hellish void we’ve seen the Hawkins kids navigate. Cool stuff."

Stranger Things MR + VR as covered in ! "Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg took a (virtual) trip to the Upside Down to pitch his company’s latest effort to make virtual and augmented reality a thing.

Zuckerberg showed off the new product in the keynote during the internet company’s two-day virtual Meta Connect event focused on AI and virtual, mixed and augmented realities.

Zuckerberg called it “the first mainstream mixed-reality headset,” which is designed to “blend the digital and physical worlds together.”One of the forthcoming titles for the Quest 3 is Stranger Things VR, which will let users “experience the world of ‘Stranger Things’ from the never-before-seen perspective of Vecna as he explores unknown realities” and “enacts his plan for revenge against Eleven and Hawkins.” Zuckerberg showed how the game can open a portal to the Netflix series’ Upside Down universe — seemingly on the wall of your own living room.
