I would like... when I am on my deathbed, to wear a fully #immersive headset (I am assuming by that time it will be a "#wetwear" interface) and I will select a runtime generated #AI environment based on all of my favourite books; films and concept albums... and I will float away into oblivion marvelling at the beautiful, surreal, disturbed world swirling around me

Learning a lot about the #Apple #VisionPro and the types of #games and experiences that will be availalbe to users

3 Types of Games:
Shared Space - #AR games that integrate into your real world. Multiple can run at a time, and any can be interacted with when desired.

Full Space - Closes all other windows and volumes. Focuses on yone game, keeps the player connected through pass through
e.g. spaceships comes out of walls

Fully #Immersive - No longer AR, full #VR, user is in another environment

So I do plan to buy a #VisionPro day one.

One feature I do wish it had is the ability to plug in your HDMI devices, so you can really use it as a monitor if needed.

e.g. I want to dive into #Diablo4 via #PS5. I’d love to plug my PS5 into the headset and play it in a media window. Having the ability to use the dial to make the #experience more #immersive.

One can dream.

Interesting... Apple offers a Vision Pro 3D simulator for Xcode with different room and lighting environments, so you don't really need a physical Vision Pro AR Headset to develop apps for it.

Ich habe heute die #vanGogh #immersive #experience besucht.
Ganz nett; wenn man noch nie #Projektionen gesehen hat super!; wenn Mans kennt ist es so #lala
Der extra kostenpflichtige #VR-Teil am Ende gehört schon dazu und sollte mitgenommen werden…
Aber es ist zu teuer! 31€ sind zu viel! Mo-Fr 23€ das ist gerade noch ok.
15€ wären inkl. VR Teil angemessen.

Keine klare Empfehlung.
Keine Warnung ⛔️.
Kann man machen 🤷

Ich hatte nichts erwartet und wurde aber auch nicht positiv überrascht.

Nice to read something that's skeptical of #immersive art but I think they kind of missed a key aspect: it looks cooler on the socials than a boring old museum, and that generates ticket sales among your aunts and by extension their friends on Facebook

“Bigger & Closer (not smaller & further away) features a journey through the British painter’s life and work, projected onto four-storey-high walls in King’s Cross’s Lightroom space. It promises to bathe you in Hockney’s light and colour, so you can feel almost overwhelmed by his works…”

From the Evening Standard

This has a relevance. It is also full of JOY! Go, if you can…

The reviews have been less than totally positive. It is a wonderful immersion into his work which is very often about photography, moving images and digital work. I did take this image to give some idea of the scale. It lasts about 50 minutes and you can stay as long as you like. You are IN the artworks. It also sounds and feels amazing. It’s FUN.

Likely using, to start, a simple serial connection to a small MCU running an #Arduino sketch that'll turn on/off motors based on signals received over serial from the #python script. For the waist tracker motor for my tail, I want to drive it directly from the tracker pogo pin, which will take a lot more effort in #electronics and coding. I mostly just wanted the ears and hair to start, but will add the others later! #vrchat #mixedreality #immersive #vr

Took my oldest kid (23) to Saint Jude tonight. Not quite an escape room, it was an interactive experience that combined audio, environment, and a few extra bits that I won't give away. I'm a bit of an immersive experience junkie, and this one definitely made me... let's say "uncomfortable"... in a whole new way. If you're in London, I highly recommend it.

(1/5) Unique image worlds, a projection surface of 16 by 9 meters, 8K resolution, 3-D laser tracking – #DeepSpace8K is a perfect way for young artists to work with #immersive image worlds. The bachelor's program "Time-based and Interactive Media Arts" at the Linz University of the Arts lets young artists develop their own #interactive program for Deep Space 8K. Let’s take a look at four projects that students have developed …

Reminder that the new story cycle of Under the Surface, Goodbye Susto, dropped just before Christmas. The first (season?) is still there too, so there's plenty to dive into. Since a lot of folks were busy at the time, I thought it was worth throwing it out there again:

Now that I'm settled in here, an #introduction :)

I'm Andrea! Pronouns she/her.

I make #immersive stuff which we used to call #transmedia, and before that, #AlternateRealityGames. I even wrote a book about it: A Creator's Guide to Transmedia Storytelling.

I also write fiction about #politics, #culture, and #technology, like The Revolution Brought to You By Nike and America, Inc.

I'm #jewish! I do so much #gaming! I can talk for hours about #CurlyHair!

Let's be friends?

Feels like time for an #introduction over here

🐘 I'm a professor in Comparative #MediaStudies at #MIT, working on #ambient and #immersive media in #Japan. My research seeks to map out the #CulturalPolitics of everyday spatial mediation, including the use of 🎵 📖 🎞️ 📹 as atmospheric #MoodRegulation, and how #VR & #AR 🥽 become forms of #PerceptualEnclosure (see bio for book links)

🐘 Also enjoy a good random detour into #SoundStudies #FilmStudies #GameStudies #STS #HistTech etc.

Over the summer at #Narrascope 2022, I had the opportunity to share my process of thinking through how to ethically approach difficult themes through #transmedia storytelling. Just thought I might as well share the video here, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_8Ym7LLTGs

I wrote a book about escape rooms! 🔍📖

It's a guide that:
- helps demystify escape rooms
- lets people feel empowered to tackle these games (or any puzzle)
- talks about the joy of working together as a team toward a common goal
- recognizes that supporting each other is part of the fun

And it includes a look at the history of immersive entertainment, a wonderful, human, ephemeral genre.

Hello! After jumping the Titanic, I thought I’d introduce myself here: I’m Linseigh, a rare disease activist, actor, singer, & storyteller. Originally from GA, I used to live in NY and Cambridge and now live in London, where I try to convince locals that US biscuits aren’t scones.

I mainly talk about: #writing #raredisease #necrotizingenterocolitis #politics #immersive #performance #disability #xr #random etc.

This #news feature summarizes me pretty well: https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/georgia-grad-student-defies-medical-expectations-25-years-after-devastating-diagnosis

Listen to Felix Barrett of #Punchdrunk (you know, the people who made #SleepNoMore) talk with @noahjnelson on the #NoProscenium podcast about #ImmersiveTheatre in #London, his influences from #ArtHappenings and #VideoGames like Resident Evil and Elden Ring, the challenges of using more #GameDesign and #Digital #Technology in Punchdrunk's #Immersive projects, and so much more in the link below.

Please spread the word, it's a great interview!

Come and get your MUSICAL THEATRE… and MORE!

Anyway, #introduction time:

I write #musicals and other things, like small #interactive #games and #music for #immersive #theatre. If you want to check out my #portfolio then look here: https://www.ericmatthewrichardson.com

I also post a lot about #leftist stuff, whether it be #socialism, #anarchism, or just #marxism in general, but always squeeze in time for #Sondheim and - weirdly enough - #themeparks.
