VR experience
VRwandlung
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Franz Kafka's death, we invite you to immerse yourself in the metamorphosis of Gregor Samsa into a vermin through virtual reality.
When Gregor Samsa wakes up one morning, he discovers he has transformed into an insect. Visitors of "VRwandlung” will find themselves, just like Gregor Samsa, in a room in Prague's Old Town in the 1910s, experiencing a completely different body: long, narrow limbs, a hard shell and their own antennae. How can one move in this strange body? Behind the door, Gregor’s father starts shouting: “Gregor... Gregor, open the door at last”. Will you manage to find the key with the limbs of an insect before the door opens?
