The room of Prince Bernhard is one of the most imaginative spaces in the palace, even though the room has been empty for more than 10 years. Intriguing, primarily because the prince himself has been a significant historical figure.<\/p>\n<p>The prince&#8217;s room was packed with objects, pictures and souvenirs. His collection of little elephant statuettes, known from some photographs and video images, spoke to the imagination because the prince was a fervent hunter in his earlier life. Later in his life he came the president of the World Nature Fund. Each statue stood in a fixed place and was numbered for the cleaner if he had to move something.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A pink elephant with VR glasses<br \/>\n<\/strong>During the BAL exhibition, those who entered Bernhard&#8217;s room saw a life-sized fluorescent pink elephant on a pedestal. On his trunk hung a VR set. Visitors got the experience that you can sit on the elephant and put on the glasses.<\/p>\n<p>In the interactive virtual reality application created by <em>The Virtual Dutchmen<\/em>\u00a0images of the past are shown. The virtual location runs synchronously with the real spot. In this historical location, we can now cast a 360 degree wide look into the Prince&#8217;s room when he lived there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eclectic dance<br \/>\n<\/strong>The visitor initially sees an almost musical representation of how it ever was. But slowly the elephants move and suddenly there are dancing pink elephants. They take a place in the room again. The fantasy takes over from reality as the many parts of this rarities cabinet jointly perform an eclectic dance. Suddenly you get a trunk and now you as a &#8220;visitor&#8221; have become an elephant. By moving your head to the left and right you can move a lot like an elephant through the porcelain shop and reconstruct to your hearts delight.<\/p>\n<div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DROPSTUFF - 360 Tropic Degrees - Paleis Soestdijk\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8YnrWZXw1IA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_third-9c1d454dc06f7247226bc4e8f931daae\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_third-9c1d454dc06f7247226bc4e8f931daae{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_third-9c1d454dc06f7247226bc4e8f931daae av_one_third  avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_two_third  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-k5xw72q0-08a3f380d9c3225187c490521879e3d0\">\n.iconbox.av-k5xw72q0-08a3f380d9c3225187c490521879e3d0 .iconbox_icon{\nbackground-color:#ff0000;\n}\n<\/style>\n<article  class='iconbox iconbox_top av-k5xw72q0-08a3f380d9c3225187c490521879e3d0  avia-builder-el-4  el_before_av_gallery  avia-builder-el-first  main_color'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class=\"iconbox_content\"><header class=\"entry-content-header\" aria-label=\"Icon: \"><div class='iconbox_icon heading-color avia-iconfont avia-font-entypo-fontello' data-av_icon='\ue86f' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  ><\/div><\/header><div class='iconbox_content_container '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><b>Virtual Reality Installation<\/b><\/p>\n<p>2016<\/p>\n<p><strong>Concept and production<\/strong><br \/>\nDROPSTUFF MEDIA<\/p>\n<p><strong>In collaboration with<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Virtual Dutch Men<\/p>\n<p><strong>Context<\/strong><br \/>\nThe exhibition BAL! is a concept of Anne van der Zwaag commissioned by Artifex, Amsterdam, temporary administrator of the Palace.
