Immersive technology like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) bring forth new ways of communicating and sharing knowledge. There is a significant difference between media engagement on social media and human engagement in spatial networks. You don’t interact with digital media feeds in virtual spaces, you’re engaging with real people. What is social here? It’s YOU, not your media. Hosted by Andy Fidel #GetSocial
