AstoriaVR is a virtual reality experience that takes you back to 1986, where you visit the famous nightclub of the Hotel Astoria in Leipzig, one of the few glamorous places in the former GDR. The hotel was a place of encounter between the East and the West, between businessmen and young women, regular Leipzigers and celebrities. Of course the secret police was always present as well, documenting and observing all events.
In the app you can experience this very special mix of fancyness and luxury on the one hand and subtle threat and surveillance on the other hand. The app is a combination of stereoscopic 360° renderings with interactive elements, overlays and stereoscopic footage of real people integrated into the environment.
The AstoriaVR experience is a cooperation between Alina Cyranek, Falk Schuster and blendFX.
