🌎【Lecture】 Moral Dilemmas & Immersive Media

What happens when a story's moral failures are not the writer's fault, but your own?
Many theories have examined how morality contributes to our enjoyment or appreciation of entertainment media. This talk will focus on the role of morality in entertainment media and extend the discussion to how immersive media provides opportunities for moral dilemmas. Through my studies, I argue that interactive media affords authentic psychological responses and self-transcendent experiences that help us reflect on who we are and our relationship with others.
當故事中的道德困境不再來自作者，而是來自玩家自己的選擇，會產生什麼樣的體驗？本場演講將探討娛樂媒體中的道德判斷，以及沉浸式媒體如何創造真實的心理反應與自我反思經驗。
