Digital Dystopia – About the Dangers of (Hyper-)Realism in Virtual Reality

Christopher Katins, PhD student at HU Berlin

The presentation will be about the dangers and concers regarding Mixed Reality (incl. Augmented and Virtual Reality). The technology is constantly improving and gradually making its way into society, but while there are many exciting innovations and benefits, the potential drawbacks also need to be critically examined. In the talk, a small selection of possible social and psychological implications of (hyper)realism in Mixed Reality will be discussed.

 

This event is for every interested person – academic, non-academic, BSc to PostDoc.
Free drinks will be provided thanks to WISTA Management GmbH.

Please reach out to me if you have further questions. This event is supposed to happen monthly and in person, so I am looking for people interested to participate actively as presenters. It’s about a 10-minute impulse presentation about your research in everyday, entertaining language and afterwards a ~30 minute discussion at round tables. So if you cannot participate this time, but you are keen to present your research, feel free to contact me anyways.
