UN_COMFORTABLE.EXE

Radical Courage and Growth Through Vulnerability

Jaime confronts the constant anxieties of being "Uncomfortable." Melding spoken word with physical presence, the piece reflects on the "milestone" of turning 31, deconstructs parental expectations and personal ego, and forces the courageous act of sitting with one’s self, moving beyond safe-feeling but isolating inner dialogues into the messy, honest void of contentment through collectiveness. It is an invitation for the audience to sit in that same discomfort, hoping that through shared vulnerability, a genuine transformation can begin.


PANEL WITH THE CREATOR AT THE RAINDANCE IMMERSIVE SUMMIT ON 12 JUNE | Colourful Narratives: Radical Courage and Growth Through Vulnerability

In an increasingly divisive and polarised world, the power of storytelling has never been more crucial. Three VR narratives—“JustJaime” Smith’s un_comfortable.exe, Iris van der Meule’s Lesbian Simulator, and Screaming Color’s A Wonderful Thing To Realize—illuminate the stage with stunningly original, vividly colourful journeys into the LGBTQIA+ experience. Through bold visuals and raw honesty, they embrace vulnerability and authenticity, leading us towards acceptance and self-love.

Each creator will introduce their work before joining a panel discussion moderated by Raindance Immersive Curator Jo Leigh. Together, they will explore radical vulnerability and the transformative potential of sharing lived experiences through VR.
