A New VR Experience Takes You Into a Museum of Stolen Masterpieces
“It is mostly dark in the Stolen Art Gallery, with a night sky above punctured by twin skylights that passively illuminate the room. You can’t see the walls, because there are no walls. You can’t see your feet, because you have no feet. All you can see, aside from an orientation pad in the middle of the gallery, is a semi-circle of five paintings floating in black space. They aren’t there either, of course. They were all stolen decades ago.”
The Stolen Art Gallery review: More like this, please
“The first time I tried VR — an original Oculus developer headset at a developer conference — I thought it could be a great learning tool that could bring slices of the real world to anyone and everyone. Yes, it can be fun to beat things with virtual sabers, but it’s also important to use technology as a tool that makes the world a better place. This is exactly what The Stolen Art Gallery does, and it does it very well.”
