<\/div> <p><em>Future Dreaming <\/em>was inspired by the ancient Australian Aboriginal practice of Dreamtime, the visualization technique where you can see your spirit move through the past, present and future. Over the course of a few months the young protagonists – Ali Lockyer, Maverick Eaton, Nelson and Maxie Coppin – collaborated with VR artist Sutu to design their Future Dreaming in the limitless creation space of Virtual Reality. Once their worlds were designed, they employed motion capture technology to animate their avatars to tell their story and guide visitors through their creation.<\/p> <p>“In this immersive VR experience, you will step into a time-warping dream bubble as four young Aboriginal Australians guide you through their futures. Be ready for an intergalactic adventure. Look out for the space emus!”<\/p> <p><a href="https:\/\/www.tribecafilm.com\/filmguide\/ayahuasca-2019">\"}';
