Virtual Verse, a poetic journey vs. Covid19

Summary

The visa project inserts the public in a virtual environment, a dark universe, with floating objects, which displays information and data about a covid19, complementing it with an audio poetry, to make a more immersive experience. A pandemic is chaos, the reverse is also true, when we are immersed in this chaotic world, data, figures, information in the domains, poetry leads us to calm down, reflect, give us a place.A place of tranquility that we need to face this global evil with wisdom and science.

How We Addressed This Challenge

The main challenge was to find a way to bring people closer to the reality of covid-19, presenting a poetic language to soften the information provided, making descriptions and audios, as an example of all the data that invades us day by day, in the media , in the news, in our colleagues. We do not need to go to outer space, in our reality we feel like a universe, today virtual reality allows us to transport ourselves and, together with poetry, takes us to a space of tranquility, of listening to what surrounds us, figures lose. numerical value and they recover it in its meaning, which is the call we want to make, we are going to travel, we are going to explore a wiser and more prudent knowledge of the virus that attacks us.

How We Developed This Project

In an era when technology dominated us with its advances, what was the amount of invasions by data and information, in many cases without being real or sufficient, the human spirit reaches the limit, an extreme of resistance, feels surrounded by many information that is sometimes almost as damaging as the virus itself. An art was our solution, to return to humanism and, better than poetry, as phrases and texts that transport us to a reflection, captured in a great team, with people from Latin America who do not feel a sense of distress in the world our resistance to virus already bad information. One solution cannot be another, if we are in an environment of NASA and its allies, the universe inspires us, we look like stars, to know that they are variable, that are around us, as data, care and tests, as symptoms that has on the people around. We decided to build a world in virtual reality, using cutting-edge technology, take a photo of the Nasa universe, free of copyright, convert a 360 image, with recursion creates an environment to navigate the virtual space, inspired by our team, poetry, texts , searchers of common and relevant data to illustrate or chaos, a difficulty of only one, time and distance, but with a technology that solves, close to creating, proposing new and different visualizations. As 360 virtual reality platforms, such as 3DVista Pro, design and illustration programs, such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustator, gave up our hand, or resulted in a virtual universe surrounded by pandemic chaos.
