During the programme _AR: The Augmented Self_ Ryan spoke how immersive technology - and Augmented Reality in particular - extends our notions of reality, identity and sense of self? Ryan's talk was recorded and can be viewed on De Zwijger's website.

The relationship between reality and identity is interconnected: a shift in one of them influences our perception of the other. Our sense of self is a multilayered and fluid state that is influenced by biological, cognitive, political, cultural, societal and situational factors. After exploring its relationship with urban space, and its influence on our social hierarchies, in this final session of our AR-focused Research Files we will together explore how immersive technologies - and Augmented Reality in particular - will extend our perception of reality and sense of self.
