"An echo of a VR experience reverberates through an empty cinema."
In 1970, filmmaker Peter Kubelka designed a movie auditorium in which carefully controlled sight lines and black velvet caused all but the screen to disappear into darkness. He referred to his invisible cinema as βa machine for viewing.β In these adventures in vision, directors Oscar Raby, Richard Misek, and Charlie Shackleton use real-time VR experience, live performance, and video essay to transform the Egyptian theater into βmachines for viewingβ to explore how we watch films.
Directors: Charlie Shackleton, Richard Misek
