        Subject: Attention and Perception in XR (Extended Reality) symposium, 20-21 June 2024, King's College London

Dear All,

As of the co-organizers and presenters, I'm very pleased to invite you to the
Attention and Perception in XR (Extended Reality) symposium, 20-21 June 2024,
King's College London. Organised by XR and Attention Research Group and
supported by the Centre for Attention Studies, King’s College London, the
symposium is a hybrid event that combines presentations, discussions, immersive
project showcases, and networking activities across two days. It brings together
scholars and creatives to discuss the problem of attention and perception in XR,
and explore what XR means for us at this present historical and technical
moment. Structured around three intersecting themes, the symposium seeks to open
up discussion and further research into the physiological and socio-cultural
mechanisms of making and shaping attention in and with XR; into how we might use
those to make XR spaces more body-caring and human-centred and how performing
arts might inform the design of those spaces; and, last but not least, into how
we might reshape the knowledge of cultural heritage and create new centres of
attention across disciplinary boundaries.

The event is free and open to all, but places need to be reserved. Please make
sure you choose the right ticket (in-person or online). Pls register here:
