The top ideas for entertainment November 2016 reveal new concepts for VR and games that are highly politically relevant.
In a partnership between the music startup 'Boiler Room' and the VR content creator 'Inception,' the first live music venue will be designed. The venue will be located in Israel and will offer consumers with 360 degree experiences of the concerts, festivals and events that will take place at the venue. The experience works to carve out an immersive space for people who cannot attend these events in person.
There is no question that we live in politically charged times and the 'Rise Up' board game comes as a response to this. It works to educate players on how to build a social movement and impact positive social change in a way that is effective.
