A video game scene depicting a circular arena surrounded by lava streams with various colored orbs and the word "diatribes" at the center.

Join us on April 25 for a Gray Area Member Mixer & Happy Hour! In this month’s get together, former Incubator artist Veronica Graham will present Diatribes, a new VR prototype developed by Graham and collaborators at Most Ancient studio.

Meet a new friend, playtest a new virtual reality experiment, and have a drink with us in the Gray Area Gallery.

About Diatribes

Diatribes is a surreal Virtual Reality narrative experience that is about the fears we internalize when confronted with the reality of climate change.

The Story:

You are arriving in an alternate space, where the gods of Nature and Civilization battle for dominance. It is always before or after the next catastrophe. You must navigate your fears through an obstacle course of distraction and find meditative practices to cope with the loss of habitats.

Will you be able to break through your emotions and find a way forward?
