Starting fresh. FLOAT is back. We're Ben Vance and Kate Parsons—we create interactive art experiences using game engines, VR, and real-time media. Our work has been featured at SFMOMA, Sundance, SXSW, with collaborators like Marina Abramovic's Acute Art, Tony Hawk, Ian Cheng, Petra Cortright, and recently: Stranger Things VR for Meta Quest. We lost our previous account, but we're rebuilding. If you're here for immersive art, technical innovation, and behind-the-scenes of how this work gets made—welcome. More coming soon, with some Stranger Things stories you haven't seen yet.
