VR as a medium in arts - Friche la Belle de Mai

Conférence en anglais ouverte au public.

VR, as an artistic medium, represents a wonderful asset, permitting creative paths that couldn't exist before. As this medium develops and the public interest rises, we get to experience more and more VR artworks. The only word that seems to matter when describing a VR artwork is “immersivity”, but what really is the place, or even the use of VR regarding the immersivity of an artwork? It is essential to question this notion; what it really means and why, in which ways we want to achieve it? Also, this raises questions about the effects this medium has on one’s creativity. Do we fear it’s something that can drive us in a single path, such as entertainment purposes, taking us away from a deeper artistic exploration of this tool ?
