The departmental Coordinated Research Centre “Extended Realities” aims to examine increasingly pressing issues arising within aesthetics, cognitive sciences, image and media theories, and philosophy of technology, particularly concerning the progressively complex interactions between organic life and material and digital prostheses. The analysis of the expansion and enhancement of realms accessible to humans through hybridisation with rapidly evolving technologies will focus specifically on the opportunities offered by Extended Realities (XR)—an umbrella term encompassing the broad spectrum of Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) technologies in their numerous and increasingly pervasive forms and applications.
