Intern Purgatory: A COVID-19 VRChat Story - Performance
This VR performance, occurring in VRChat and streamed to Twitch, is about a place, and an app, called ‘Intern Purgatory’. The state of the world forces three artists to become unpaid interns inside their own virtual reality project. Their fantastical new employers drop the worst crisis they have ever suffered right onto the new intern’s live/work cubicle desks. They must now stop a wild brand on a rampage or suffer the consequences of a changing world around them.
