Now AR also seems to be dead. VR has been dead for some time, but Apple would bring the breakthrough for AR - or so it was thought. In my opinion, this means that the whole immersive thing is dead, or is taking a break and joining interactive documentary film, which has been in pause mode for several years. The question is: why doesn't immersive work?

I have an answer to this (as an always-already immersive-hater): We live in turbulent times. People want more of an overview, they want to look at things from a meta-perspective. Not to go into the details, but to see the overall meaning. The meta-perspective is something the immersive approach can't offer.

By the way, interactive documentary is great for the meta-perspective but only if you do it in a certain way which I call korsakowian ;-)

Offenbar sinkt das Interesse an Apples Vision Pro. Erneut könnte eine VR-Brille floppen. Liegt es am Preis? Vielleicht. Oder daran, dass Headsets einfach lästig sind.

Korsakow film by and about Übersee-Museum, Bremen. In the exhibition and also online. Deep, honest, knowledgeable.

Warum sammelt ein Museum überhaupt? Und wie sammelt man? Was macht eine Kuratorin und wie funktioniert Provenienzforschung? Fragen über Fragen zur Museumsarbeit... aber wir beantworten sie! Nicht nur in unserer neuen Ausstellung SPURENSUCHE, sondern auch auf unserer Website, und zwar hier ➡️ http://ow.ly/adr050x14ep

LIFE ACCORDING TO KORSAKOW #4
Miss Understanding

Based on a talk I gave in Mexico City last month.

We live in a divided time. There seem to be two groups of people that have very different perception of reality. Most likely you are yourself member of one of these groups. Most likely you never consciously decided to be in one or the other group, it just happened. And most of your friends happen to be in the same group.

Your family: not so much. Like most people, you have family members, that are in the other group, you know, whom I am talking about: it is that uncle/sister/nephew that you avoid talking about politics/religion/life, because he/she never gets it. And you never get, what he/she says.

This podcast explains why.

And as a bonus it will let you see how humankind will develop.
;-)

Enjoy and share and all that!
