Immersion in audiovisual media has captured the popular imagination with the arrival of affordable virtual reality systems. The Immersive Pipeline is a series of research projects that explore the social and visceral potential of immersive media in physical space. It describes the cycle of research from capacity building to content creation, public engagement and ways the project may (or may not) fulfill scholarly, artistic, and policy driven agendas.
