Things Fall Apart

 

 
 

A cyber production based on W.B.Yeats’ poem: 'The Second Coming'.
It is a collaboration of chamber music with high school students from Ireland and Germany via a live Zoom conference from their own homes using Virtual Reality activity and animation in real time.

In 2022 the CyberRäuber have created an immersive installation with VR headsets based on Yeats’ Poem with Kaplan’s composition. Each visitor is invited to experience the installation in the actual as well as in virtual reality, making their own journey through the space while experiencing music - text- and extraordinary images.
