Virtual Reality as Empathy Machine: Immersive Media as an Instrument for Social Change

Date: Monday, October 26, 2020

Time: 2:00pm - 3:15pm

 

Fontanilla's creative practice employs immersive media as an interventional tool, creating low-impact site-specific installations about urban ecology, and educational instruments for social integration of disabilities. In this session, Fontanilla explores the emergent properties of virtual reality that make the expressive form particularly effective in promoting cognitive empathy.
