STEP is presenting a special evening dedicated to the film “Ready Player One” from the visionary Steven Spielberg.
The film, set in a dystopian future, explores the world of OASIS, a virtual reality universe. The story follows young Wade Watts in his quest for control of this digital world.
Guided by Massimo Temporelli, guests Matteo Battiston and Federico Cella, as very attentive and active professionals on these topics, will offer their perspective and give an analysis on the issues dealt with in the film, recounting the current and near future state of virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality technologies. They will discuss how virtual and augmented reality and the infamous Metaverse are influencing and will influence our lives and the future of our relationships in the professional world and beyond.
The evening will end with a debate, inviting the audience to participate with questions and reflections on the topics addressed by the guests and the film.
For those who wish to explore the topics covered in the film a little further, a podcast by Massimo Temporelli will be available that will extend the discussion beyond the event.
