ABOUT
BR — FLY
BR-FLY is a meditative VR experience where you will be guided through a narrated mindful breathing practice in an immersive environment filled with responsive virtual fireflies. You will be immersed in a space akin to a galaxy with glowing and star-like fireflies combined with a relaxing ambient soundscape, encouraging connection and awareness.
Our intended audience are visitors at an art gallery/exhibition space or VR users intrigued through the app store. The estimated length of our experience is 6 minutes.
