MusicVR

MusicVR is a virtual reality project created and developed by the musician Mike Oldfield.

MusicVR set out to be a real-time virtual reality experience combining imagery and music, as a non-violent and essentially a non-goal driven game.

In 1994, Oldfield's album The Songs of Distant Earth, one of the first enhanced CDs, featured a 3D interactive segment, with some ideas similar to MusicVR.

Oldfield and his team of programmers set off developing a version of the MusicVR game for release to the public.

The game was developed on and for Windows based PCs, although Oldfield uses Apple Macintosh computers for recording much of his music.
