ARC grant announcement: "This project aims to investigate the idea that virtual reality (VR) is an ‘empathy machine’ that can simulate the experiences of other people and thereby give us knowledge of what it is like to have those experiences. The project expects to advance our understanding of this issue by bringing together philosophical work on ‘what it is like’ knowledge and work in psychology on immersive VR. Expected outcomes include a theory of how VR can give us degrees of ‘what it is like’ knowledge, and a normative analysis of what can go wrong when we try to use VR to understand other people. This should provide significant benefits, including guidelines for the ethical use of these 'empathy machines', and practical advice on improving their accuracy."
Very excited to be co-CI on this awarded ARC Discovery Project investigating whether and how knowledge gained from VR experiences corresponds to knowledge gained from their "real" "equivalents". Let me know if you're interested in collaborating, especially at #IEEEVR 2026! #VRresearch
Resilience is not just about bouncing back: it is about moving forward with renewed purpose.
IEEE VR 2021 took place during the pandemic. 1200+ people attended virtually.
This moment reminded me that resilience is never a solitary endeavour. It is collective. bit.ly/IEEEvr21 #IEEEVR #IEEECS #IEEE
I had a situation where someone* was telling me they’d like to organise a hybrid social VR panel discussion that was like the one at #IEEEVR this year.
I was like “you mean, MY panel discussion at IEEEVR”?🤣
Clearly my avatar wasn’t linked with me in people’s memory 🤔

🔝 At #IEEEVR 2025, #Qualcomm & @i2cat.net showcased a two-user holographic call between Saint-Malo & Barcelona.
Powered by #5G and volumetric capture tech, the demonstration revealed the power of next-generation connectivity to transform human interaction.

Not hanging around #sxsw or heading to #ieeevr.
Too busy writing the XR Research Roundup.
Not at all jealous.
You're welcome.
