Episode 2: Alternative Worlds - Shangri-La & Lost Horizon
The second episode features Kaye Dunnings - Creative Director of Shangri-La at Glastonbury Festival and during lock down evolved into the virtual world of Lost Horizon. The conversation goes off road, weaving through the back stories and journey Kaye has travelled to date. Influences from music, art, social movements, counter cultures, to living and working within a community of artists and performers. From the fields of Glastonbury Festival creating experiences through reuse, recycle and resist to teleporting audiences globally beyond the physical space into the virtual world of Lost Horizon. Each project creates new ways to share culture, responding to the world as it is and uses what exists to imagine new possibilities beyond the status quo. Immersive sub-cultural cities, micro worlds and communities are created using art, music, audio visuals, performance, and activism. Alternative realties use creativity to bring people together in unique ways and inspire active participation to co-create positive change. The latest project launching Glastonbury Weekend 2021, plans to push the boundaries and potential of virtual reality, using an experimental approach to expand possibilities. The next phase of Lost Horizon brings the physical and virtual together as a hybrid. Tune in and hear the future scoop on what’s planned for Glastonbury Festival weekend 2021.
