ROAMance

romance
adventure
social experiment

What is it like to go on a date with a stranger without having any idea what they look like? The only clue to their identity is their voice. Instead of a blindfold, you put on VR glasses and embark on a blind date, journeying together through fascinating landscapes – from an impressionistic desert to a pulsating nightclub. Along the way, you’ll even encounter a slightly unsettling giant rabbit who asks you both intimate but also everyday questions. As you talk, play, and share experiences, you gradually piece together who your partner is and what they might look like. The project relies on imagination, offering an authentic meeting between two strangers that defies the superficial swiping logic of modern dating apps.
