On the 30th of May 2019, we held the Telepresence and Migration International Symposium at CINETic in Bucharest. We presented the results of the project and opened the dialogue towards the wider field of telematic performance, 360 degree film and VR, in relation to the subject of migration. The symposium reunited the Tele-Encounters project team, professors and PhD students from UNATC and international guest experts. Lots of insightful ideas were exchanged during the day!
We thank all participants!
