Lena Biresch
Collective Virtual Reality Experiences

Digital technology, social media, and games have significantly changed the role of audiences. Often more than mere spectators, they become players, users, testers, co-creators, and communities. Virtual reality (VR) has been a major element in this evolution: As a medium that individuals experience in many different contexts, VR offers countless opportunities for immersive and collective experiences within the performing arts. In this workshop, we will use asymmetrical VR games to discover alternative approaches, play together and have a discussion.
Coming from a background in theatre, Lena Biresch has been working with new immersive and interactive media since 2016. Since completing her training in game programming, she has been working as a freelance VR experience designer at the intersection of performing arts and digital art.

Laura Tontsch
Interactive Storytelling

Deciding on something, enabling something, solving something, responding to something – first and foremost, interactive storytelling means that listeners and viewers (i.e. online audiences) have to be an active part of an experience in order to advance or even influence the narrative. In this workshop, we will look at the aspects of conventional storytelling that can become interactive levers and the according possibilities that can arise. We will also develop and test our own small prototypes.
Laura Tontsch is a theatre director and narrative designer who experiments with digital forms of storytelling. This has led to interactive stage performances, Instagram games, a TikTok opera, and numerous augmented reality (AR) experiences. As a narrative designer, she recently co-developed the AR app for the Berliner Ensemble.
