IMPORTANT: This experience requires Vive Trackers and an HTC Vive (full minimum specs below). A standalone version is available on the Quest Store.
Body of Mine is an award-winning Virtual Reality experience that allows you to step into the body of another gender and discover the stories of transgender individuals.
Combining full-body, face, hand, and eye tracking with personal interviews of transgender interviews, the experimental storytelling experience allows you to immerse yourself into the skin of another, and discover lived stories of gender dysphoria and euphoria. Body of Mine is the recipient of the Producers Guild Innovation Award, the SXSW Special Jury Award, Best XR at Games for Change, a BAFTA Student Award, and premiered internationally at the Venice Film Festival.
Body of Mine "breaks through a psychological barrier that few pieces of media ever have" (WIRED), taking you on a profound journey of what it means to be a human being.
This experience will not run without a specific hardware configuration and calibration, including 5x HTC Vive Trackers, an RTX 3090 graphics card or higher, and (optionally) an eye-tracking headset. Please read the README for detailed information. A trackerless, standalone adaptation is coming soon.
