Why we enjoy fear: the science of a good scare theguardian.com/science/2022/o…
Check out our lab video about APEX of Fear and the Recreational Fear Lab featuring @MathiasClasen, @TTerkildsen, @Marc_M_Andersen and @MorbidPsych among others. youtu.be/ywwfu_xgMKM
Ready to present @APEXofFear at Slush'd @AARSOME @Innofond 🎉
Testing a VR multiplayer maze set-up in the lab today developed by @TTerkildsen & @ratuspro for @APEXofFear. @TTerkildsen finds it appropriate and amusing to jump-scare @MathiasClasen by suddenly emerging from a maze wall 🎃
We're gearing up to present some of our @Innofond-ed @APEXofFear material at @AARSOME🤘Come check it out!
For the APEX of Fear experience, the music and sounds will be dynamic and change according to the physiology of the players, in order to keep them in the sweet spot of fear. This is being developed by our sound designer Thomas Carnell. Watch a demo here: youtube.com/watch?v=ojlel7…
Good times are being had in the lab with @TTerkildsen's @APEXofFear tech. Photo: Jacob Papsø
We recently got to talk to some high school students about horror research, and show off the cool physiological measuring tech for @APEXofFear. Several students asked whether the project would result in a commercial product – seems we're on to something here...
We're so proud of our team member @TTerkildsen, who won the Tribeca award for creating an LGBTQ+ VR museum!
We won! I am overwhelmed with emotions thinking about how far this project has come. I am so proud that @AntoniaRForster and I have been able to create a virtual space that platforms these amazing queer stories in a way that resonates. 🧵
Congratulations @yannakakis! We are so thrilled to have you as part of the @APEXofFear project.
@InDigitalGames researchers ranked as best scientists in the country 🇲🇹 and @UMmalta on @ADscientificind ranking🧪! Congrats @yannakakis for the first position 🥇 and @SentientDesigns for being among the top 20! #gamedev #research #academicresearch #digitalgames #AI
