About the episode

In this episode, we introduce Taiwan at the Forefront of Digital Arts, a discussion on Taiwan’s multidisciplinary approach to extended reality (XR) and its leading role in highlighting local artists on the international stage.

The discussion, moderated by Myriam Achard, Head of New Media Partnerships and Public Relations at PHI, will address the mechanisms that allow Taiwan's cultural context to help provoke and nurture a strong community of artists and creative technologists. The artists present will also introduce us to their interdisciplinary practices and approaches to XR.
