The Virtual Reality Hype

https://soundcloud.com/medea-vox/the-virtual-reality-hype

Virtual reality is celebrated as the ultimate medium for storytelling. Some even say that virtual reality can make you feel empathy in ways that no other media could. In this episode of Medea Vox, we gather three media scholars to discuss the concepts of augmented and virtual reality. Should we believe the hype?

This is a conversation between Jay David Bolter, Wesley chair of new media at the Georgia Institute of Technology; Susan Kozel, professor of new media at K3; and Maria Engberg, assistant professor in media technology at Malmö University.
