Virtual Realities + Alterities
Experimental approaches and expanded practices
9 May 09.30 – 17.45
Royal College of Art – Lecture Theatre 1
London SW7 2EU
Opening Keynote from DCRC Director Mandy Rose
This one-day symposium held at the Royal College of Art investigates current practice and thinking about the technologies of Virtual Reality, and the related mediums of Extended, xR and Augmented Reality.
Now that they are sufficiently developed and accessible for artists, designers and the general public, Virtual Realities and Alterities – other ways of doing VR, XR and AR – remain an emerging field of study, and what constitutes the ‘virtual’ is still open to debate.
