Exchange Circle “Future of Immersive Experience” and Guided Tour: Visualisation Research Centre (VRC)

Today, the ubiquitous small screen of our cell phones has outperformed the big screen. Social media platforms have more production volume and viewership than film and television. What does this shift mean for our general perceptual habits? Is physical and conceptual immersion still an important aspect of our aesthetic experience?

Join Prof. Andreas Kratky (Director of Academy of Visual Arts) and Prof. Jeffrey Shaw (Director of Visualization Research Centre) as they will discuss their explorations of immersive experiences along with their research and observations.

Experience cutting-edge visualisation systems and powerful sonic architectures that are transforming virtual, augmented, and mixed realities. Discover how VRC creates multisensory engagement using experimental platforms conjoining art and technology!
