How to conduct behavioral experiments ethically in VR? Learn more in our next #InVirtuo talk this Friday at 2 p.m., when Dr. Konstantinos Armaos (@bachlab.bsky.social) and Clemens Uhing (@iwe-bonn.bsky.social) from our consortium talk about this challenge and how they approach it in their research.
Looking forward to hosting Christian today. I'm sure it's going to be an interesting talk.
Today we are welcoming @derguenther.bsky.social to our #InVirtuo seminar. He is going to talk (in German) about design choices, ethics and the role of the perception of authenticity for VR applications, based on his empirical research of VR use in museums and at memorial sites.
🤔Does VR really build empathy? Find out in our next InVirtuo Seminar, where we welcome Dr. Charles Rathkopf @charles-rathkopf.bsky.social ( @fz-juelich.de) for a discussion of the #empathymachine hypothesis.

Today is World AIDS day and tmw I‘m teaching on the HIV/AIDS Crisis again. A shocking amount of students have zero knowledge of its devastating history. Given conservative backlash I doubt curricula will change soon & vital research has already been defunded by the Trump admin. Fight the forgetting.
Ich poste hier einfach mal ein bisschen #News (Dinge die ich vom alten Twitter vermisse): Hier meine ehemalige Kommilitonin Martha, die gestern für die ARD aus Warschau über den Anschlag auf die Zugestrecke Warschau-Lublin berichtete. www.tagesschau.de/video/video-...
Every time Covid and learning loss hits the news, people act like the only factor is folk staying home and learning online, rather than… Living through a global mass death event.
