Embodied Identities: How We Become in XR Spaces
- Living the Virtual
Idealized, stylized, or non‑human avatars fundamentally alter how we perceive others and ourselves. This panel examines embodiment and identity in social XR, how avatar choice can shape self‑presentation, what “being real” means in virtual space, and the creative possibilities of digital metamorphosis. Panelists will discuss how platforms can foster experimentation and anonymity while addressing impersonation and harassment, navigating the tension between playful transformation and demands for authenticity.
