Thanks to the dynamic technological development, our thinking about audiovisual forms is constantly expanding. VR is becoming more and more popular and available to the audience, as well as game developers and other artists are experimenting with its possibilities. New experiences arise combining narrative drawn from fictional cinema with the specificity of virtual reality. We keep discovering new ways to tell stories. We invite you to participate in the meeting, during which, together with experts, we will consider new narrative forms and try to look into the future of our multimedia perception. During the meeting, the assumptions of the holographic project “Break out” by the Polish company Kosmos Production will also be presented. The audience will have the opportunity to see with their own eyes the possibilities of the holographic screen. The conversation will be preceded by an introduction by UMCS prof. Radosław Bomba, co-author (together with Michał Bobrowski, PhD.) of the book “Poza ekranem kinowym. Postmedialne konteksty animacji”.
