The VARRN webinar series will introduce members of the team and their research interests through a series of 45 minute sessions across time and space. This collection of presentations will focus on the central theme of Exploring human and social dynamics through virtuality within the areas of Heritage, Health and Education. Our webinars investigate questions generated from the interdisciplinary expertise of our researchers working in their national and transnational settings.

WebinarSeries 1 Eugene
This lecture aims to expound observations in the development of virtual environments to-date. The talk stands on the thesis that XR as a whole is not a tech but an assemblage of complex relationship of things.
WebinarSeries 2 Zi
This research project involves the creation of Mind Space XR, a VR project that has the initial idea of supporting users to experience emotion-focused skills training based around mindfulness, emotion regulation and compassion in a low-risk environment.
WebinarSeries 3 Matthew
This webinar aims to increase sonic literacy by exploring the communicative dynamics of sound (and music to a limited extent) in digital media.
WebinarSeries 4 Bruce
This webinar will present about Virtual Experience Synchronisation, innovative XR-based teaching and training approach for rapid upskilling and reskilling. This approach will explore about developing virtual contents around “Critical Experience” and “Meaningful Experience”.
WebinarSeries 5 Donovan
Using VR and AR numerous scientific studies continue to show the benefits of using XR for better student outcomes and learning engagement.
WebinarSeries 6 Maslisa
A workshop or talk about product longevity, emotional transference, memory and identity through adaptive reuse.
WebinarSeries 7 Kenneth
This talk looks at how the uncanny has become a fundamental element in the creation of media art. How the juxtaposition of desperate elements has become central to how we understand the creation of meaning in contemporary culture.
WebinarSeries 8 Nan
This lecture brings together artists, educators, researchers, policy makers and technologists to discuss on the applications and development of AR/VR technologies in the field of visual culture and education.
WebinarSeries 9 Harold
This webinar provides an overview of the information design process applied to the digital preservation and re-presentation of cultural heritage. It employs principles of information design to create a matrix of content encompassing the cultural imaginary - the embodiment of the intangible nature of much of the world’s heritage.
