Last Friday was our second Connecting Class. Our big question this time was considering how we might be able to use augmented reality in our studio practices.
I had a small problem at the start getting the video clips to play and so I had to share a device with another student. The technologies we learnt about in the video are amazing, the kind of thing you might see in a science fiction film! In March I had the opportunity to witness these technologies first hand; at the Photography show I visited a stand where the company had embedded a digital slide show into their photo albums. The discussion we had afterwards was very lively and we probably haven't scratched the surface! I think for me, I can see the benefits of augmented reality in terms of education but I'm a little worried that if we take it too far it will become the "norm" and could potentially spoil organic experiences.
