In 2025, we partnered with Agog: The Immersive Media Institute on one of our Collaborative Case Studies: Libraries as hubs for XR distribution, exhibition and creation. As longstanding centers for knowledge exchange, civic engagement, and public access to knowledge, libraries offer a unique infrastructure for fostering immersive storytelling outside of corporate pipelines. We are collaborating with Cambridge Public Library, LA Public Library as well as Stanford Public library to explore the potential role of libraries in commissioning, distributing, and expanding access to immersive experiences. This initiative is funded by Agog: The Immersive Media Institute.
Agog: The Immersive Media Institute has also generously supported WORLDING 2025, a project of the MIT Co-Creation Studio, in collaboration with Indigenous Screen Office, and MIT Media Lab.
