Ephemeral is a guided VR Qigong practice experience. Participants follow a mysterious master’s voice to achieve different practice levels. Unlike traditional Qigong, in this game, the apprentice can not only see their Qi but also curate a harmonious life energy.
The project was developed around the end of Covid-19, and aims to develop a healthcare alternate practice solution, especially for those who have less mobility, or are not able to access outdoor exercises for some reason, by engaging people with practising Taichi in VR.
(Taichi: a traditional Chinese martial art that emphasizes slow, flowing movements to promote balance, flexibility, and inner peace, similar to Yoga but with less challenging postures.)
