Description:
First Day is a single-user, interactive, immersive project that places users directly in the immediate wartime situation, allowing them to experience firsthand the impacts of terror and disorientation as the war erupted. But not only. It challenges users to learn how to control themselves and make split-second decisions that can help save lives. Users relive how people quickly learned to survive, resist and build resilience in an unjust attack.
First Day is a journey where community, help, and empathy are primary elements to breathe and survive. Our immersive and interactive experience seeks to help others navigate crises by showing how choosing to transform inwardly from victim to helper can empower resistance and life.

First Day is intended as a prologue to subsequent virtual war stories as a testament to the power of the human spirit.

Description:
Every day, stories about the battles for Gostomel, the evacuation under shelling from Irpin, or the massacre in Bucha remind us of a terrible dream that we want to forget. However, this is the reality we live in and must remember.
Russia's war against Ukraine began back in 2014 with the occupation of Crimea and parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. On February 24, 2022, Russian troops launched a full-scale offensive. It is currently impossible to calculate the exact number of civilian casualties.
More than 10 million Ukrainians have left their homes. Not all of them now have a place to return to.

This project shows what Ukrainian cities look like after the Russian attack: after liberation from occupation, as a result of shelling and air strikes. How cozy streets are filled with destroyed buildings, burned equipment, and burials of the dead.

Description:
A unique documenting multi-platform XR experience that shows a destroyed city known to the whole world by russian army crimes. But behind this destroyed by russian air bombs apartments houses, shotted civilian cars with people inside, and shelled by tanks infrastructure of a whole city there are many people's lives and destinies. Stories of real people from Borodyanka, their evidence in a 360 video, and locations of a city from normal life, time of the war (virtual locations), and after deocupaton!

Сonsist of 4 stories of real people from Borodyanka, who are witnesses of the occupation.

Also, the video shows the city of Borodyanka before the occupation and after as well shootings in "invisible drone" style.

The virtual locations of Borodyanka at the time of an occupation that I reconstruct virtually using 3d scans of real war artifacts and locations.

Aso:

1. For virtual locations of war, it was 3d scanned war artifacts and locations of a city. The viewer can go inside ruined buildings and see them above with an "invisible drone" view.

2. Part of the project is an XR exhibition in a mobile app with 15 moments of occupation of the Borodyanka with 360 portals to Borodyanka, augmented reality 3d models of war artifacts, and witness evidence.

3. For a social online engagement, there is one unique world of Borodyanka built-in VRCHAT where visitors at the time of a presentation event (or a festival) can go "inside remembrance" and can meet the witness of occupation at the live event.

Description:

An innovative immersive project shows the world the courage and endurance of the residents of Gostomel during the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Using advanced virtual reality technologies, we transport users to the heart of this story, where they witness life under occupation and the heroic battle for Gostomel.

The project recreates in detail key events in the city's history: from the destruction of the legendary Mriya aircraft (AN-225) during the crucial battle for the airport, to the daily life of its residents, both before and during the occupation.

The project uses interviews with residents of Gostomel, Mriya pilots, relatives of fallen heroes, as well as 3D scanning of locations and the creation of five virtual environments, complemented by a unique 360-degree video to create a deep emotional connection with history and demonstrations in VR helmets around the world

Interactive Experience: Viewers have the opportunity to virtually visit real locations of Gostomel, both before and during the occupation, feeling the atmosphere of the city and its history.
Real Stories: The project is based on real testimonies of residents, which adds emotional depth and authenticity.
Education: Gostomel VR serves as an educational resource that allows you to understand the consequences of war and the importance of peace.
Technological Innovation: Using advanced VR technologies and scanned locations to create an immersive experience in history.
