Description: This work which dates from 1982 deals with Leibniz’s Monadology. This metaphysical theory which posits that the universe consists of inseparable immortal substances endowed with souls and spirits intrigued OUBEY so much that he dedicated this painting to it.
This VR takes you to the very centre of the monad universe where you’re totally surrounded by the enchanting diversity of the painting’s elements. And you can touch these elements too, play with them, float them, fly them and let them cavort freely through the depths of space.
Review: Much like ‘OUBEY VR – Samurai‘ before it ‘OUBEY VR – Reise der Monaden’ is an interactive art experience in which you kind of make your own image by moving your hands over the canvas. I have to say I didn’t enjoy this experience half as much as the previous one, but it was still OK’ish. Art experiences like this are never for everyone, but at least it is free so you can give it a go without risk. Maybe try it out yourself and let me know what you thought about it in the comments below.
