<div>In the framework of the Museum Without Walls project, this workshop will examine how virtual spaces can become places for knowledge generation and collaboration. Alexandra and Eleanor will share their
experiences in the decade-long Phi Books, a writing project engaged with human and non-human creative collaboration, engaging with visual, sonic, animated, and embodied storytelling. They will explore how to deploy technologies as heuristics for collaboration
and how to position virtual spaces as horizontal non predetermined structures. They will also convey an ‘immerticritical’ - immersive and critical - approach towards technology, language, and image-making. At the end, participants will be able to originate
their own collaborative methods and experimental storytelling forms, with analogue and digital ‘agents’ supporting the process across self-defined dimensions.</div>
