Join us for a lively Q&A session between VR producer and VR Sessions’ curator, Catherine Allen and Watershed’s cinema curator, Mark Cosgrove.

Together they will discuss VR’s potential future as an art form and what Catherine learned when producing Easter Rising: Voice of a Rebel; one of the BBC’s first VR documentaries. Get involved with the conversation, exploring questions such as; why is theatre so relevant to VR? Could we ever use VR to ‘travel back in time’? Why is it important we think about VR’s ethical dimensions sooner rather than later? How can strapping a screen to your face become part of an evening out?

As Catherine is based in Bristol (here at Watershed’s Pervasive Media Studio!), she’ll also discuss how Bristol has all the right ingredients to be one of the UK’s main places for VR.
