VR
Crystal EarthTimes, a VR experience, guides viewers on a journey through 3D crystals and landscapes, a guided meditation, and music by Yialmelic Frequencies as a way to contemplate naturecultures and the non-dualistic nature of crystals, as crystals are located in all aspects of life including at the core of the earth, in the form of solid crystals, as well as in digital technologies such as computers, mobile phones, medical devices, and televisions in the form of liquid crystals, which are devices that can also connect people to virtual nature spaces. This piece was developed during the first lockdown in March 2020 and was conceived of as a way to help people feel deeply connected to nature, in bodily, technological, and virtual ways, for those who were unable/less able to access natural spaces regularly. This piece contains four virtual rooms accessible through portals, which take the viewer to different crystal landscapes. The “Meditation Zone”, includes a guided meditation, which invites the viewer to explore the deep interconnection of the realms of nature and technology as a way to move beyond current binary classifications of life within earth’s ecology. The website is currently not active.
