With the advent of new technologies, users are becoming more demanding and simply reading content, watching video content, commenting and following social networks will soon no longer be enough, as they do not enable active involvement, which users long for. The so-called giving of information will be replaced by the so-called immersive storytelling, which is a technique of telling stories (content that we provide to users) using VR and AR technologies, which gives the feeling that the user is "in the story". It is a unique but influential way of interweaving reality with fiction.
Users want to be part of the story. That helps explain the popularity of VR video games, where players can become heroes and shape the action in a completely different world.
Another example comes from music. Jean-Michel Jarre was among the first musicians to stage a virtual concert where visitors could join the performer on stage. The event attracted a staggering 75 million viewers. By a rough estimate, it would take 1,500 concert days to reach a comparable audience. Pretty remarkable, isn't it?
