Showcase schedule

Monday, March 31

  • IAT 445 Immersive Environments
    Location: Mezzanine (SRYC)
    Time: 3:00-6:30PM at the SFU Surrey campus mezzanine

    On March 31st, students will be pre­sent­ing their final VR projects. The design chal­lenge was Impact: Using immer­sive expe­ri­ence design to con­tribute to mean­ing­ful solu­tions to real-world chal­lenges. That is: what is a topic that you (and your team) care very deeply about that would help create a better world? A topic you care about so deeply about that it might be worth making a purposeful/transformative immer­sive VR expe­ri­ence out of it?

This year’s VR projects explore themes of envi­ron­men­tal respon­si­bil­ity, emo­tional resilience, and interconnectedness—inviting audi­ences to step into the fins of a salmon return­ing home, expe­ri­ence life as a bee, restore bal­ance to frac­tured worlds, or break free from the weight of self-doubt. These pow­er­ful expe­ri­ences lever­age the unique affor­dances of vir­tual real­ity to spark com­pas­sion, reflec­tion, and action. Join us for an after­noon of inno­va­tion, imag­i­na­tion, and impact.
