IMVR

IMVR is a co-designed virtual reality experience developed in close collaboration with the Penan community of Long Lamai, Sarawak (East Malaysia).

Rooted in the indigenous concept of Molong, a philosophy of care, custodianship, and reciprocal relationships with nature, IMVR invites users to experience the rainforest not as an observer, but as a part of it.

What you can experience

• Explore a 3D rainforest environment inspired by the Borneo rainforest
• Choose a living entity (Olong) and see the world from its perspective
• Immerse yourself in authentic forest soundscapes
• Learn about indigenous ecological values through embodied interaction

Why IMVR

IMVR fosters ecological awareness, and a deeper emotional connection with the forest (tana), through immersion, not instruction.
