Mika Johnson will speak about the Virtuell Reality (VR) project  “VRwandlung”, a virtual reality adaptation of  Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis (die Verwandlung)

"As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a monstrous vermin."
— The Metamorphosis, Franz Kafka
