VR Revival
VR Revival
StoryFutures, the Creative Industries R&D catalyst partnered with Nesta, the UK’s innovation foundation, to develop a brand new immersive economy and wellbeing initiative. The cohort of appointed Immersive Fellows explored how experiential storytelling and psychological expertise can be combined to support better mental health and wellbeing. Four immersive companies from our cluster region collaborated with Royal Holloway, University of London’s world-renowned Psychology Department and experts in depression, emotional processing, and family mental health to develop and build a series of early prototypes to help in the prevention of certain types of condition.
VR experience on health & wellbeing
VR Revival created uplifting social experiences in VR for underserved audiences, and they worked with an expert in emotional processing Dr Inês Mendes on a VR application to help with feelings of distress, inadequacy and failure through self-compassion.
