Hamlet (itch) (ADigitalPerformance)

This is a prototype for an interactive experience of the classic story of Hamlet.

The story is set in a surrealist/alternate history setting, with the voices being acted out by the computer in Danish with an American synthetic voice - which gives it a kind of otherworldly feeling.

We're considering the future of literature and theatre - and how we can recreate some of those traditional experiences in a new way.

This is just Act 1, as an exploration of digital media, an initial proof of concept. About 10mins playtime.
