How we proceed with the Places _ VR Festival

Why did we choose to postpone the Festival instead of making a virtual event and why is a real festival, where we meet in person so important to us?

In our latest video message, the head of festival, Matthias and Roman, explain how they lived through the process of the postponement and how we are planning to proceed from now on with the festival. Please activate CC for english subtitles. 

Another important information concerning two calls: The deadline for the application for the DIVR Science Award and for Creative _ Places was actually in the middle of the most eventful week in the last month with a lot of uncertainty for us as organizers of the festival and also for students and artists, who potentially would apply for these calls. Due to this circumstances we choose to re-open these calls until May 4th. You find the applications here: www.places-festival.de/en/calls

We are highly motivated and are really looking forward to the Places _ VR Festival in August! 

Virtual greetings!
