Hƿæt! is an immersive VR exploration of oral traditions and storytelling. Taking its name from the lost Old English word that opens the epic poem Beowulf, this experience aims to put players in a space where they can listen to and retell this age old tale, adding their interpretation to a virtual library of collected retellings.
Hƿæt! was completed as my final thesis project for my MFA in Interactive Media from USC.
