Mixed Reality Ulysses (or MR Ulysses)

Description: 'MR Ulysses' is an innovative performance experiment hybridizing theatre and volumetric video, enabling individuals to experience a live-action re-enactment of James Joyce's 'Ulysses' in VR. Audiences are invited to don an HMD, embody the character of Stephen Dedalus, and engage Buck Mulligan in Joyce's famous Martello tower-top scene.
