The hunger for immersive experiences is stronger than it’s ever been. For this episode of the podcast, we speak to one of the pioneers of this trend, John Sear.
Multi-talented and highly creative, John designs game-like things – urban games where players are on a live stake-out in a public car park, or a 500 player laser game experience you can play at theatres or festivals.
In this episode, we discuss John’s DIY tutorials for museums so that you can build exciting ‘digital things’ without a huge budget.
