Breathe

Synopsis
Breathe is an immersive, multi-user augmented reality experience that allows participants to visualise their breath and how it spreads through the air, as well as the interconnectedness that exists between all living beings who share the same air.
The experience uses biometric sensors and real-time meteorological data to make a usually invisible phenomenon visible and create an emotional and sensory connection between participants and other living beings represented in the experience.
