I realized very strongly that visual impression, particularly an immersive, 360 surround image, even though one has very clearly in one’s mind that it is anything but “real” (and even the large pixels speak for themselves), but there is something very delicate about the immersive environment in triggering deep memories inside one’s mind that one knows one has, but has rarely tapped into so profoundly – that is one of the powers of immersive media. | I realized very strongly that visual impression, particularly an immersive, 360 surround image, even though one has very clearly in one’s mind that it is anything but “real” (and even the large pixels speak for themselves), but there is something very delicate about the immersive environment in triggering deep memories inside one’s mind that one knows one has, but has rarely tapped into so profoundly – that is one of the powers of immersive media. | ||
