Body·Mind·Change·Redux

Body·Mind·Change·Redux follows the activities of BMC Labs, a fictional biotech firm partnering with Cronenberg to develop biotech implants inspired by the intellectual property found in his films. The player’s emotional journey is anchored in the central conceit of Body·Mind·Change·Redux – a personal call to action from Cronenberg to help BMC Labs create the next generation recommendation engine, called Personal-On-Demand (POD).

The Body·Mind·Change·Redux experience culminates with the player entering the virtual reality realm. This new world, hinted at in Cronenberg’s earlier films such as Videodrome & eXistenZ, envelops the viewer as it dissembles their current idea of reality. It is a forerunner to a longer, more immersive short film heading into production in 2016.

Body·Mind·Change·Redux, the complete digital extension of TIFF’s exhibition David Cronenberg: Evolution, immerses audiences in a “Cronenbergian” world inspired by the film Videodrome, re-imagined for the 21st century and brought to life across three platforms – the Web, the Real World, and Virtual Reality. Download Available for Oculus Rift + Samsung Gear VR in early 2016!
