The collaborative music-making technologies that the Immersive History project aims to develop represent an opportunity for cultural organizations to expand their reach.
This project brings together cross-disciplinary expertise from a range of academic, industry, and cultural partners to explore the point where performance practice, gaming, virtual reality, spatial audio, and culture and heritage meet.
