The wisdom of crowd VR

How to play

In “The Wisdom of the Crowd,” the viewer finds themselves immersed in a mixed-reality environment where their surroundings are displayed in black and white. In this altered space, the viewer must observe the tiny bees (taken from Ariella Vidach AiEP’s show “In the Forest of the Future”) floating around them and try to give a numerical indication of how many there are. Once they have made the estimate, they will have to press a button in order to access the virtual keyboard where they can enter their answer. Once the estimate is confirmed, they will have to press another virtual button that will show the exact number of flying bees in the room. The average and median of previous players’ estimates will also be shown, highlighting how these are very close to the exact number of bees in the virtual space. This immersive experience challenges participants to test their observation, counting, and estimation skills in a virtual environment. The use of black and white in the environment amplifies the attention to the details of the bees.
