LDF II: Concluded with 45,000+ visitors
Four main themes emerged from the Metaverse Bodies collection of nine exhibitions based on climate change's impacts, gender and identity, culture and heritage conservation, and computational concepts such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and futuristic landscapes.
Metaverse Bodies
The further we move into the digital age, the more we seek to immerse ourselves. From the static experience of reading a webpage to now tricking our minds with augmented reality, we are full of science fiction visions of fully customizable simulated realities in which we live out our dreams and fantasies. What is our embodied experience of reality and how does it shape our bodies?
