Duran Duran x TriggerXR

Platform: Qualcomm Snapdragon HMD

Role: Associate XR Designer and Creative Strategist

A Band of Firsts

Qualcomm, Trigger XR, and Duran Duran partnered to produce an interactive XR music experience — Reality Reimagined — using augmented reality (AR) glasses, and launched at the annual Qualcomm Snapdragon Summit. The experience, powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Spaces, blends the alternative world with the surreal, and draws from Duran Duran’s musical future and past for inspiration. Through AR Glasses, music fans reimagine a virtual galaxy of music using AR and spatial audio, enabling an immersive experience that transforms the space around the user. The result is an out-of-this-world experience that takes fans on a journey into a futuristic galaxy and introduces a new layer of immersion to the music experience.
