Abstract:
This text reports on audiovisual creation projects with virtual reality (VR) developed in collaboration with urban, indigenous and afro communities, making a brief review of our research our laboratory recent trajectory. From a situated perspective and aware of the corporate situation surrounding immersive media, we assume that first-person perspective is the most representative discursive element of VR. This element is taken as a starting point in audiovisual co-creation experiences with local communities whose cultural logics feedback and point to other directions for immersive media. The text describes the adoption of VR in research-creation projects concerning (1) the modalities of musical distribution and listening originated during the Pandemic in the Bogota rock circuits, (2) the ancestral knowledge of the amazonian indigenous people about visual and auditory perception and (3) the modes of resistance of the Afro communities of the city of Buenaventura.
