A little VR experiment

Early this year, I devised a simple little VR experiment trying to answer these questions: Can we simulate the experience of watching a music video in a specific context / location, such that video and context / location have a reciprocal effect on each other? What is the effect, i.e. how does the video change our perception of the context / location and vice versa? Thanks to Peter Hajba for helping out and lending me his gear to record 180 stereoscopic film and binaural audio. This is just a first test, I will soon devise more interesting location / videos experiments.
