Explore the future of Virtual Reality

The Exploring Digital Futures event in Scarborough 26th & 27th May 2017 encompasses inspiring and informative talks, discussions, networking opportunities, shows and experiences. It'll focus on emerging trends and developments in the use of digital technologies in the arts and creative industries. If you're interested in finding out more about these new technologies (particularly Virtual and Augmented Reality (AVR) and 360° film), or if you're studying or work in theatre, film and the visual arts, gaming, education, museums and galleries then our one day conference event will give you loads of information to keep you up to date with the new developments.



As well as the conference there’ll be loads more opportunities over the two days to experience many of the latest technologies either free or at low cost including Tilt Brush by Google, which allows users to ‘paint’ in 3D space; a gaming on the big screen taster session in the theatre’s McCarthy cinema and VR gaming; a 360-degree immersive astronomical experience from Scarborough’s Hidden Horizons; theatre performances exploring the use of digital technologies presented by the Stephen Joseph Theatre’s Young People’s Board; and VR art.
