The Sage Gateshead, renowned building dedicated to the performing arts located in England becomes, thanks to Oculus Rift, a huge musical and visual instrument in which percussion will delight our ears to the rhythm of creativity.
Coinciding with the anniversary of the Sage Gateshead, 10 years, various artists from the world of music and the arts, used the spectacular auditorium to perform an unprecedented concert in which the main instrument were the bowels and pillars of the auditorium itself. Walls, stairs, pipes and various parts of it, were the materials responsible for creating spectacular percussions.
And from the hand of Mbryonic and Atomhawk Design comes a curious 3D experience, Play Sage Gateshead, with Unity engine, in which we can create amazing melodies in an immersive way thanks to Oculus Rift (there is also a version for iPad and iPhone, in addition to a version for web browser.
