[Commlist] Attention and Perception in XR: hybrid symposium

*Attention and Perception in XR *

A hybrid symposium

King’s College London, 20-21 June 2024

The XR and Attention Research Group and the Centre for Attention Studies 
at King’s College London have the pleasure to invite you to a symposium 
on *Attention and Perception in XR*. (XR stands for/Extended Reality/, 
encompassing /Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Mixed Reality/ – and 
different forms of /AI/ used to design those realities).

The symposium combines presentations, discussions, immersive project 
showcases and networking activities across two days. It brings together 
scholars and creatives to discuss the problem of attention and 
perception in XR, and explore what XR means for us at this present 
historical and technical moment. The symposium seeks to open up 
discussion into:

•             the physiological and socio-cultural mechanisms of making 
and shaping attention in and with XR

•             how we might use those mechanisms to make XR spaces more 
body-caring and human-centred, and how performing arts might inform the 
design of those spaces

•             how we might reshape the knowledge of cultural heritage 
and create new centres of attention across disciplinary boundaries.

The event is hybrid (in-person and streamed online) and is free to 
attend, but registration is needed. For more information, please visit
