• The Museum of Other Realities is Now Free to Visit - 2 July 2021

  We’re excited to announce that there’s no longer a paywall to get into the MOR! It’s been a journey If you’ve heard our inception story, the MOR was originally called the ‘TH-er’. That was in 2017. Accessibility may remain a challenge in some harder-to-solve-for ways, but this is a significant step. The MOR was conceived in seemingly simpler times - positioning the ambition to be a ‘virtual magazine’ for flipping (read: flying) through VR art. Building a virtual stage for virtual art We’ve always been grateful to the artists we came in touch with, who inspired the space that their work was to inhabit. And while our developers knew that the MOR could be seen as a precipice of VR art - we wanted it to be a flexible vessel with no growing pains. We wanted to ensure we earn the belief of those who first hear our calling. We chose to weave with the thread that holds the seams between art and…

• Immersed in Restoration: With Glen Fraser, John Harrison and Jacki Morie - 22 March 2021

  Our next talk event on March 25th, 2021 at 9 am PST stirs up the pressing question concerning the temporality of VR art. We're honoured to host and extend the perspective of VR long-timers Glen Fraser, John Harrison and Jacki Morie as our guest speakers for 'Immersed in Restoration'. Caption: Tree from Osmose (1995), frame captured from a live immersive performance. © 1995 Char Davies While it might surprise contemporary VR artists in 2021 to hear about the first three decades of VR art history, the question to also raise is why don't people know about these early works? Can they still be experienced now, and where? What would it take to resurrect them? In this MOR Salon event moderated by Jacki Morie, we'll look at a famous 1995 VR artwork by Char Davies, and hear from its guardians what efforts have been made to keep it alive and running for future audiences to enjoy.

• Tilt Brush by Accident : With Guest Speakers Drew Skillman and Patrick Hackett - 23 February 2021

  Perhaps this event can be branded for bringing VR lore in the MOR - as Skillman and Hackett from the VR studio by the same name, Skillman & Hackett will be narrating the conception story of Tilt Brush in the MOR, this Thursday on Feb 25th, 2021 at 6.30 PM PT. Now the latest news doing the rounds in VR circles about this award-winning application was announced on January 26 this year - when Google released the source code to the game under the Apache 2.0 license on GitHub. Celebrating a month since the announcement, we thought that bringing Skillman and Hackett in as guest speakers - the original creators of Tilt Brush themselves - would be fitting. A truly stellar twitter thread by Danny Bittman from the same day that Google open sourced Tilt Brush VR and shut down internal development does a nostalgic take on the journey of the application and its creative purposes as deemed by users.…

• MOR November 2020 : Body Clock - 17 November 2020

  We’re ready to share a collection of six works by artists questioning and challenging the body for its physics, as it climbs meaningfully outside of limbs and limitations to clock a newly calculated body dialogue. The MOR is excited to be back with this show, and most eager to see what conversations emerge from the intersection of these artists. The show opens on November 19th at 6.00 PM PST. Mark your calendars as the event is always a neat opportunity to meet the artists alongside the artwork. New in the Museum Gossamer Andy Baker, UK, 2020 Created in Unity. Gossamer is a room scale experience that might be the most ephemeral aspect of this show, with wispy tendrils forming and multiplying by truly leaning into musical tendencies of mathematical patterns. The maths behind the piece can partially be traced back to the work of mathematicians like John Conway and George Hart. He also cre…
