Moving through Space
Workshops such as these teach theoretical and practical frameworks that break down silos and enable teams of different creative people to work together. Within a month, the participants were able to manoeuvre around altspaceVR, understand how world-building works, determine what elements create great user experiences and imagine an improv setting that could foster their own growth.
