SUMMARY:Talk: The Future of Storytelling in XR and AI
DESCRIPTION:Loc Dao (DigiBC)\n\nAs XR and AI technologies advance, they ar
 e reshaping not just how stories are told, but how they are felt, experien
 ced, and co-created. This session explores the evolving role of interactiv
 ity and immersion in storytelling—where audiences are no longer passive, a
 nd machines are active collaborators. Drawing on curatorial insights from 
 the Signals Creative Tech Expo, Loc Dao examines how these technologies am
 plify human expression while raising essential questions about memory, ide
 ntity, connection, and consent. Attendees will discover how immersive medi
 a can engage our senses, simulate empathy, and challenge traditional bound
 aries between creator and audience. This talk offers a compelling look at 
 storytelling’s future—one where technology deepens our understanding of ea
 ch other and the world around us.\n\nInterest Area: Gaming & Interactive,
