Leo Metcalf made a VR-experience about memories of childhood, magical fantasy-worlds to escape reality and emotional stuntedness. In the interview he talks with The Art Wire-host Sophia about his personal experiences that he integrated in the art piece. Furthermore they talk about the dream-like imagery, about the sound design and the storytelling in "The Time Before" (and much more!). There even is a secret movie recommendation if you are looking for the saddest film in the world :)

This interview was recorded at the ART*VR-Festival / ZIP-SCENE-Conference in Prag in October 2025.
