About this listen
In this powerful episode of Dr. VR, I sit down with Māori filmmaker, educator, and immersive media innovator Wiremu Grace, the creative force behind "Atuatanga," a groundbreaking VR experience told entirely in te reo Māori. Premiered at the 2025 Imaginative Festival in Toronto, "Atuatanga" brings Māori spiritual narratives, environmental awareness, and ancestral wisdom into the immersive realm of VR.
Together, we explore the cultural and creative journey behind "Atuatanga," the role of Indigenous storytelling in XR, and the future of Māori participation in immersive technologies. From community engagement to language revitalization, this episode shines a light on the transformative power of VR when rooted in Indigenous identity and knowledge.
