Some of our summer 25 art highlights so far (fb)

At the end of November, we brought together artists, creatives, producers and institutions at the Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub, Jesus College, Oxford, to celebrate the culmination of Immersive Assembly Vol 4: Dreams and Echoes. Featuring the unveiling of three new immersive project prototypes developed throughout the programme by artists Vicky Clarke & Michelle Collier, Jazmin Morris & Chris Tegho, and Chipo Mapondera & Alysha Nelson. And a panel from industry luminaries Ceri Hand, Usman Haque, and Maitreyi Maheshwari, joined by University of Oxford academic Vladyslav Vyazovskiy asking: Once hailed as the ‘empathy machine’, how do we meaningfully harness the power of virtual reality and other modes of XR, through a combination of world leading research and artistic expression, to benefit a world in a state of crisis?
