Together with the Dream Adoption Society (DAS) group, which he founded in 2017, Garbaczewski realized intermedial projects. VR and AR have become an integral part or even the entire space of DAS’s and Krzysztof Garbaczewski’s recent performances. The discussed A Midsummer Night’s Dream (2022) was created using VR technology. An actor‑ cyborg appears on stage, experiencing a new reality together with the audience.
