The Haptic Collective - Acts Reacts, VaporTate

'The Haptic Collective' is comprised of students and staff from University of the Arts London and Linz University. This work was a participatory live feed performance/seminar in the Theatre Space at Wimbledon College of Arts and was open to the public as part of Acts Reacts 5.

The first part of the performance was a demonstration of how the virtual reality interface worked, followed up by a tour of the private virtual spaces constructed by The Haptic Collective over several weeks. The second part of the seminar involved a live discussion about the progression of The Haptic Collective project between Dr. Lois Rowe (Wimbledon College of Arts) and Jonathan Kearney (Camberwell College of Arts) from University of the Arts London, and Kristina Mauer from Ars Electronica Lab and Tamiko Thiel from Linz University's Interactive Cultures program.
