Floating in the Sea/Floating in the Data. The "lmmaginario Bragadin" Experience around Venezia, Italy

Extended realities are often oriented in enhancing the perception of space, isolating the subject from the real environment and bringing the user to "anothe~e". In the "lmmaginario Bragadin" (imaginary BRAGADIN, n3,· flom "Marcantonio Bragadin", Venice 1523 - Famagosta 1571 , past marine captain) an incredible outside world and the "introvert" virtual environment meet to define a unique and origina l experience in the Venetian Laguna. From a collaboration between the Laboratories of the Dipartimento di Architettura, University of Florence (DIDALABS) and Lorenzo Parretti, artistic curator of the IB, a specific and itinerant exhibition was developed to offer people the experience of XR, while floating around one of the most fascinating landscape and built heritage place in the world.
