Virtual Reality

I’ve been exploring VR music-making for the last eighteen months, and I want to share what I’ve learned - this is my purely personal take. But before embarking on their journey into virtual reality, there’s something every user has to contend with. VR is one of the most cutting-edge ways to make music, but it’s a little controversial, partly because of its reliance on big corporations to provide the hardware, but mostly because of resistance to the frankly bizarre look of VR headsets: they take some getting used to. If you want to get involved, you’ll have to overcome these obstacles, but believe me, it’s worth it. It may be a little impractical, disorienting and even slightly dystopian - but making music in VR is like nothing I’ve tried before.
