Netflix’s ‘Adolescence’ has become the first ever streaming show to top the weekly UK television ratings. Everyone’s talking about the dangers posed by toxic online culture, for both women and men.
We’re looking for volunteers to explore how VR and immersive spaces can be more inclusive and safer for everyone. You’re invited to join a participatory workshop involving playful, creative, hands-on activities to imagine alternative scenarios.
WHEN: 23rd April 2025, 9.30am – 17.00pm
WHERE: Virtual and Immersive Production (VIP)Studio, King’s Meadow Campus, University of Nottingham.
This is an opportunity to meet other volunteers, creatives and researchers, to reflect on and engage with these challenging topical issues. This is also an incredible opportunity for you to try out immersive technologies and see first-hand how they can be used to produce short films using digital worlds and characters.
Please keep in mind that VR headsets will be used for activities in this workshop.
Participants will receive a £35 shopping voucher as a thank you for taking part.
Please complete this form to express interest.
