All Kinds Of Limbo

All Kinds of Limbo is a communal Virtual, Desktop and Augmented Reality experience featuring Nubiya Brandon & the Nushape Orchestra.

An audience of upto 20 people simultaneously join from anywhere in the world to watch a volumetrically captured performance scored by Raffy Bushman and performed by Nubiya Brandon. During the experience, the audience is able to move around the performance freely to view Nubiya perform from any angle as she takes them on a journey through classical, grime, reggae and calypso.

The ten minute performance was captured volumetrically before other band members and further digital set elements were added.

All Kinds of Limbo debuted at Sundance in January 2020 and went on to show at the Tate, London and IDFA, Amsterdam.

In January 2022 All Kinds of Limbo launched on the Quest AppLab Store, iPhone, Android and Desktop in partnership with Microsoft & Dice.fm for a public world-wide release.
