Immersive 360° installation | 2021

Relive the sensations, emotions, sounds, roughness and colors of this treasure of literary heritage, as an answer to the question “What does it mean to represent the work of Boris Vian 100 years after his birth…?

L’Écume des jours, Boris Vian’s famous jazz novel, becomes the anchor for a 15-minute collective interactive virtual reality experience specially designed for a 360° immersive structure. Audiences are invited into a poetic, interactive and sensory huis clos, where they interact playfully and instinctively with Boris Vian’s flagship inventions – such as the Pianocktail, the Biglemoi, and the anti-lily flowers – to move the story forward and trigger funny or dramatic situations.
