🏆 Honorary Mention · Prix Ars Electronica 2005
“Waco Resurrection” by Mark Allen, Michael Wilson, Brody Condon, Eddo Stern and 2 others received a Honorary Mention in the Interactive Art category of the Prix Ars Electronica 2005.
As predicted by his Branch Davidian followers, Vernon Howell (aka David Koresh) has returned to Mt. Carmel for the final battle. Revisiting the 1993 Waco, Texas, episode, gamers enter the mind and form of a resurrected David Koresh through custom headgear, a voice-activated, hard-plastic 3D skin.
