Preliminary findings from a research project that attempts to explore the convergence of interactive video games, cinema and emerging immersive technologies.
This paper will discuss some of the possible implications regarding the convergence of digital media technologies such as those created by the hybridisation of immersive 360 degree video, interactive environments and moving image. It will also attempt to raise some questions of its own in relation to these new representational technologies and address some of the broader theoretical implications that immersive interactive technologies pose for both practitioners and educators alike.
