Climate Week NYC was one for the books. From methane visualized in 360° to inter-island systems thinking to LED karaoke—we saw what’s possible when art, science, and story come together. Immersive media for good is gaining momentum. Let’s keep going. #XRforGood #ClimateWeekNYC

The world is a lot. But recently, we co-hosted an #XRCommunityMixer with ASU that reminded us what really matters: connection, imagination, and care. Grateful to share space with brilliant creators and showcase work by Simeone Scaramozzino, GRX Immersive, VRX, and Nonny de la Peña.

Recapping our visit to Marketplace of the Future during #ClimateWeekNYC 🌱 We soaked up climate optimism at the @grist.org panel with Pinterest, Imagine5, and others, skillfully moderated by @annetheresegennari.bsky.social

Last week, we celebrated 10 years of the Grist 50 and 25 years of trailblazing climate journalism. We’re proud to stand alongside a movement of artists, scientists, organizers, and storytellers shaping a more just, joyful climate future. 🌍 grist.org/fix/grist-50... #Grist50 #ClimateWeekNYC

Got to experience the premiere of “In Plain Sight: A Climate Solution Unlocked”—a 360° immersive film that reveals how methane, an invisible climate threat, can be tackled. Art + science + data = a powerful experience. It made us think: What could it look like as a full XR story? #ClimateWeekNYC

Immersive media, used with care, can help us feel what we can’t fully understand—and move us to act. Agog’s @chipgiller.bsky.social shares on @mashable.com why XR storytelling deserves a seat at the table for social change. mashable.com/article/imme... #XRforGood #Storytelling #ImmersiveMedia

#ProgressiveEnhancement is the strategy of building websites in layers, starting with basic features for all devices then adding enhancements for XR-capable devices to provide a richer experience. Get more details in our #XR branding guide: agog.org/see-your-bra...

Spatial brand systems go beyond traditional logos and colors, incorporating 3D elements, materials, motion, and sound to create immersive XR experiences. Learn more about spatial brands and how we did it in the guide: agog.org/see-your-bra... #ImmersiveDesign #BrandInnovation

When creating a web-based XR experience, choose tools that are easy to learn and collaborate with, and also keep your code relatively lightweight. Read more about Agog’s WebXR layer and the tools we used: agog.org/see-your-bra... #WebXR #3dBrand #SpatialComputing #ARVR

To create an XR-ready brand, you may need to collaborate across disciplines with multiple partners, as Agog did with digital branding studio Upstatment and spatial computing experts 14islands. Read how we did it in the full guide: agog.org/see-your-bra... #ARVR #Branding #3DBrands #SpatialBrands
