Project: Research

Project Details

Overview

Research England-funded Immersion Fellow with the South West Creative Technology Network (SWCTN) exploring forms of intimacy in immersive experiences and their impact on human connection, health, wellbeing and agency. This developed into an investigation of poetic and subversive mechanics for interaction and how they can create embodied metaphors and alternate realities that excite, connect and empower people. These investigations led to two practice research projects (Glass Ceiling Games and The Future Has Been In Touch), an invited keynote presentation and a conference paper.
