VIRTUAL GAME at Shinagawa STELLAR BALL

Club event "VIRTUAL GAME" which put music and 3D stereoscopic vision VJ together in Shinagawa STELLAR BALL on Sunday, July 12 was held.







"VIRTUAL GAME" is indoor RAVE that combined high quality dance music with "3D-VJ" by the 3D movie.
We get glasses for stereoscopic vision at a floor entrance.











It is regrettable that it is not conveyed an atmosphere with a photo. The movie becomes dim with the photo, but When I wear glasses, the movie looks like a solid of 3D.

Still, it was a luxurious time it drank beer from the day, and to leave the position to a 3D movie and music.
