Whatever the content or communication medium, all stories require the teller to somehow share time and space with their audience. Whilst some mediums achieve this by allowing the reader to escape into their story remotely, most immersive stories exist in a physical space. With XR/VR/AR/MR etc. there are more opportunities for immersive experiences to be shared by audience members who are in physically different places. As designers of performing arts buildings we understand how to create auditoria that are optimised for storytelling and are now applying the same core principals to digital immersive experiences. This presentation will use examples from some of our completed buildings to explore how the analogue techniques translate to the digital domain.
