Other Sundance Film Festival has come and left, and with that we have seen several interactive films and experiences that will be the 2022 conversation. After which, the profound story of a family dealing with the loss of their beloved Android, has all the manufacture of award competitors. And we have feelings, we will hear more about we meet in virtual reality after being released, because they managed to capture several moving portraits of the relationship formed above VRChat.

There are some disappointment too, like Tiktok, Boom, who tried and failed to overcome one of the fastest growing social platforms. We don’t have time to discuss every project that we encountered at Sundance, but like last year, we have collected some quick impressions of movies and other prominent experiences.

I continued the journey watching the cosmogony. It was rotated in the virtual sundance cinema, where the Avatar stick I found a chair in the middle of the third line beside several other journalists. When we waited for the show started, we could see artists in a walking maker walk and warmed up in a studio in Geneva. A glimpse behind this screen is very helpful to remember when the show developed, reminded me that only three high dancers were naturally wearing performance.

In space where the law of physics might not matter, how do we interpret ourselves? Free from real world bounds, how will you express yourself or choose to appear to others? This is an interesting concept, and I appreciate that the team behind the cosmogon never ever said the word “Metaverse,” leaving you to make your own connection. In Sundance where the words “Metaverse” and “NFT” appeared too often because of my desire, the freedom that the cosmog gave the audience to release. – Cherynn was low, deputy editor

The Musical Part, Afro-Cyberpunk Fairy Tale, Neptune Frost presents a unique vision of the future through Africa, a continent is usually ignored by traditional science fiction. The film follows a transgender hacker, who comes to mystical communes full of other people who find comfort in technology. It’s not to say they avoid humanity. Instead, through the character wrapped in the keyboard and old motherboard components, Neptune Frost showed us the techno-utopia who celebrated the temporary community as well as the fence on large technology and the Dystopian government dubbed the authority.

“Death surrounds us,” said a Colty miner during a poetic moment at the beginning of the film. “The worker pays the price that seems.
