Björk’s Vulnicura album to be recreated for an HTC Vive VR experience

To kick off Björk’s 18-month world tour at Sidney’s Vivid Festival, Björk’s Vulnicura album will be recreated for a unique VR experience specifically for the HTC Vive. The “bespoke” VR experiences which will be created will be “beautifully crafted immersive renditions” of the album’s music videos. The first song from the album to be recreated in VR will be Notget for the Vivid Festival which is going on now in Sidney.

The world premiere of Notget in VR combines high resolution 3D scans, on-location holostudio, motion capture and videogrammetry along with real-time special audio design that envelopes and embeds the user into Björk’s performance. These digital assets are blended together to create an ever evolving and changing digital form of particles, light and sound that inhabits the space with you. Vive and its room-scale VR tracking capabilities has allowed the team to create a performance piece that reacts and connects with the users as they are encouraged to explore the large physical space, creating a deep connection that only could be achieved and experienced in VR.

We’re not sure if the Björk VR experiences will be available for those who have purchased their own HTC Vive, but we’re hoping that those who have shelled out their hard earned cash of HTC’s first VR headset will be able to experience the new content in the comfort of their own home – even if it means paying a few bucks to do so.

How much would you be willing to pay for a unique VR experience like this on the HTC Vive?
