Bloodbath
Bloodbath is a VR collaboration directed by Tim Voronkin that received the Spirit of Raindance award (2022). Dale Deacon contributed worldbuilding — spatial structure and place-logic that let a confrontational narrative hold in immersive volume rather than as a floating video pane.
Role
Worldbuilding contribution inside a multi-author festival pipeline (same pattern as other Raindance Spirit works in this atlas). Honesty about scope matters for verification: this is collaborative Immersion fieldwork, not a sole-author claim on the entire piece.
What it tests
Festival circuits need rooms that can carry discomfort. Bloodbath tests whether social/immersive VR can host moral and visceral intensity without breaking presence — layout, pacing of reveals, and how bodies share a charged space.
