Make no mistake; when Mathieu Désilets, Salim Lounis, and Jean-Claude Macena talk about hoverboards, they mean Marty McFly—not the electric, rolling, banned-in-New York variety. As students in the Université du Québec à Montréal’s Immersive Environments and Interactivity Course, the trio created HVBRD, an immersive audiovisual installation that takes users into a rose-colored, generative world.
“We’ve always been huge fans of Retrowave and wanted to find an occasion to create a project using its aesthetics,” Désilets tells The Creators Project. “We also chose the hoverboard as a tribute to back to the future, as Marty McFly’s return was in October of last year.”
