“Game control room”
Anika Hussen's VR gallery room models space with entertainment installations on the wall at the front of the room, with corresponding buttons on the control panel on the lower level. Anika's inspiration originates from the idea of granting the audience with alternate choices. Currently, installation is static with representational imagery, but will eventually become interactive.
