Sink deeper into the world of immersive storytelling—now that we know an immersive story, well told, can make us feel ‘present’, can these stories bring us closer to each other? Can experiencing a story using immersive technology increase our empathy for people with stories very different to our own?

Scott O’Brien thinks so, he’s the founder of VR and AR company Humense, and sees this emerging tech (when used well) bringing us closer together.

Lumina is a podcast about how tech innovations challenge and shape the way we share stories, produced for the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS) by Audiocraft.
