Some objects keep something of those who owned them. A memory. An emotion. A presence.
VEIL lets you search for that trace.
Photograph an object: something of someone you are looking for, or a place where you feel them near. From that image, VEIL draws a presence. Always the same one, every time you photograph it.
Then you speak to it. And it answers the only way it can cross the veil: with light, with the trembling of the phone, with sound that breaks apart. Never with words. Only signs.
It is up to you to read them.
- No two presences are alike. Each photograph evokes one with its own temper: some distant and quiet, some restless, some hostile.
- It does not always answer. Sometimes there is only silence — and that, too, is a reply.
- Nothing is recorded. Your voice and your images never leave your device. No internet, no account, no data collected.
Best experienced alone, in the dark, with the volume up.
VEIL is distributed as an entertainment experience.
Contains flashing lights and strobe effects that may not be suitable for people with photosensitive epilepsy.
