​James Joyce is Back, In VR Form

James Joyce’s Ulysses is a classic novel (I hear), but you know what could make it better (I assume)? Virtual reality (hopefully)!

Look, I haven’t finished Ulysses. And that’s okay! Even nerds that celebrate Bloomsday can agree that it can be a daunting novel. Which is why Dublin filmmaker Eoghan Kidney is trying to make it a bit more digestible by turning one of the more difficult parts of the book — the chapter Proteus — into an interactive VR experience called In Ulysses: Proteus

You can check out Eoghan’s crowdfunding page over here. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go polish off Dhalgren and Infinite Jest while sobbing in jags and glancing at the CliffNotes every five seconds.
