It is the stories of song, the language of country, that carries our breath to the ancestors, & aligns us in connection with creation.
Sharing story have always been ceremony. In one way or another. From sitting around the fire, to dancing and singing, it’s always been a complete immersive experience. We lost that along the way, to sitting in the stalls watching a select few unique elevated individuals performing at us. Separated from it.
360º and VR is not just about looking into a narrative; it's about stepping into the very heart of it, becoming a part of the living story. Like the ancient ceremonies that immerse us in the world of spirits, nature, and ancestor, the 360 camera invites us to be present, not as observers but as participants. This immersive storytelling takes us beyond the frame and into the pulse of the narrative. Stories here are not limited by the edges of a screen, we find ourselves braided into the very fabric of the story. We're not told where to look; we can explore, engage, and create our own path, finding meaning in the relationships we forge with people and places.
The power of this technology lies in the ability to transport us into the heart of another's perspective, as if we were sitting in a sacred ceremony, in deep relation with the land and its stories. It's a new way of being, a path towards a future where narratives are not just viewed but experienced, where narrative wasn't confined to a linear tale but was a living experience, a way to connect with the spirits, the land, and the stories of our ancestors.
