The Digital Society Research Group are delighted to welcome Sarah Brin as the next speaker in their seminar series.
The term "Metaverse" is everywhere we look. We've seen it used to describe online gaming experiences, Microsoft Teams meetings, and even a new flavor of Coca Cola. But what is a metaverse? And why are people so obsessed with them? In this presentation, futurist and senior design leader Sarah Brin demonstrates some of the historic lineages of expansive story worlds, and distills some key design principles for creative technology practice, world-building, and meaningful connections with audiences.
Sarah Brin specializes in design leadership and creative partnerships. She has a hybrid professional background in fine art museums, immersive media, and large tech companies. Sarah has engineered and contributed to interdisciplinary creative technology programs for the European Union, Autodesk, Sony PlayStation, SFMOMA, British Council and elsewhere.
