BeAnotherLab

Embodied Virtual Reality system designed to experience the world from another person's perspective

The Machine To Be Another is a performance installation. It facilitates the immersive experience of a body swap between two persons in real-time by combining neuroscientific research insights, performance art and Virtual Reality technology. BeAnotherLab enables this form of embodied perspective-taking to stimulate dialogue across differences for pro-social behaviour and mutual understanding.
