The Milieux Institute’s Immersive Reality Lab has created the first proof of concept for a multiplayer VR research project called: “Documentary Practices: Knowledge sharing and community building using immersive technology during time of social distancing.”
We have reproduced an immersive interactive space emulating Technoculture, Arts and Games, and we would like to invite Milieux members to explore, hang around, chill out, in a VR open house on Friday, Sept. 11 at 1 p.m. ET.
To reach the space please contact us at vr.milieux@concordia.ca and follow the instructions below.
