OVERVIEW

Telepresence, often shortened to presence, is a state or perception in which we overlook or misconstrue the role of technology and feel present in the environments and/or connected to the people or things we experience via technology. It’s increasingly relevant to a wide range of media experiences and application areas.

Following a series of 17 successful Presence conference events (https://ispr.info/presence-conferences/previous-conferences/), PRESENCE 2018 will retain the single-track format and enjoyable social environment of previous conferences while featuring an expanded variety of paper and poster sessions, panel discussions, keynote presentations, hands-on demonstrations of presence applications/services/projects, and informal discussion, networking and fun. Members of both academic and industry communities are welcome.… read more. “Call: PRESENCE 2018, 18th conference of the International Society for Presence Research (ISPR)”

An important announcement:

The International Society for Presence Research has established a new group on Facebook, the ISPR Presence Community group, and you’re invited to join. As the name implies, we hope it enhances the sense of community among those who study, design, market and/or are just interested in any aspect of (tele)presence. I’ll post images and links to stories I find that don’t fit in ISPR Presence News and all group members are encouraged to post anything that they think might be of interest or value to the community. This group is completely public and of course free, and you can join by clicking on the ‘Join’ link on the group’s page, at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ISPRpresencecommunity/; you need not be a member of ISPR or have attended an ISPR conference or other event. If you’re on Facebook, please consider joining us!… read more. “ISPR News: You’re invited to Join the new ISPR Presence Community Facebook group”
