Insider-Outsider
—
INSIDER-OUTSIDER is an interactive virtual reality experience inspired by the universe of Henry Darger, an "outsider"
artist who remained unknown during his lifetime. Co-produced by Lucid Realities and Science & Mélodie, and led by Philippe Cohen Solal,
the piece is part of the larger transmedia project OUTSIDER. Participants explore a fantastical world inhabited by the Vivian
Girls, blending music, art, and nature in an immersive quest against the forces of evil.
