Virtual Reality Group

The Virtual Reality (VR) Group will explore the use of the technologies listed below in art & design practice. VR replicates an environment that simulates physical presence in places in the real world or imagined worlds and lets the user interact in that world. We aim to build a UAL wide community of interest who participate in meet-ups to share of practice, collaborate with the sector & work together to develop exhibitions, workshops & events.

• Augmented Reality 
• Holography
• Oculus Rift
• Gravity sketch
• Leap Motion

The group is part of CCW Digital and the CCW Pop Up Digital MakerSpace project an inter-disciplinary Student-Staff Collaboration.

The ‘Pop Up Digital MakerSpace’ project aims to explore, share and build on our knowledge and experience of emergent digital practice and its relationship to disciplines at CCW and beyond.
