Abstract
An online version of Body RemiXer created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Exhibited at Recto VRso Vancouver 2020. Automatically connects to other people using the same platform. To get the full experience install on two PCs and launch the experience at the same time to be automatically connected. High-fiving connects your bodies while a double high-five (both hands) swaps your bodies so you can control each other's. Moving in sync generates a drumbeat. Made for Oculus Rift/Quest or SteamVR.
