Virtual Reality, Reality, Perception: MIRA explores VR

October 15, 2019
4:30 PM - 6:00 PM

337 Cohen Hall

What can we learn from experiencing, reflecting on, and discussing virtual reality? What are the useful applications of, or risks of VR? Why does it “work?” What are the differences between experiencing virtual reality and experiencing reality? Is there anything special about actions or social interactions mediated by VR? Come play with a VR system and discuss the philosophy and cognitive science of VR. Also, there will be food and fun games!
