In Songs for a Passerby – a VR opera by Celine Daemen about our tenuous relationship with the transitory nature of reality – you will autonomously walk through a musical dreamscape shown in a VR headset. You are following your own 3D mirror image and on the way you will pass by various scenes: a dying horse, a choir of murmuring people, two playing dogs.
