How do awe-experiences unfold in immersive art? How can they be extended towards societal transformation?

Immersive art increasingly envelops audiences through new embodied experiences that integrate multisensory interactions and more-than-human collaborations with algorithmic and multispecies mediators. 

This experimental and network development project brings together experts in art, design, psychology, digital humanities, and cultural mediation across Europe to explore how awe-experiences materialise in immersive art, and how they can be extended towards societal transformation, through engagement design and cultural mediation. The project forms new grounds for transdisciplinary creative practice, research, and collaboration.
