This wiki is being formed around a belief that immersive experience is important to our development as human beings. 'You are not a human being in search of spiritual experience. You are a spiritual being immersed in human experience' Teilhard de Chardin. By making a commitment to understanding how immersive experiences are constituted, we can come to appreciate how they can contribute to learning and the educational project. Our enquiry is part of a larger knowledge building enterprise concerned with learning for a complex world.

Have you ever read something and wondered..What was that.. did it supposed to have a meaning, I must have overlooked? ....and like cloud formations in the sky perceptions are always shaped different, which makes immersion a totally unique experience...but it is only when the storm forms that you have that second chance to feel your being evolve. Your senses react at their full to pain and your mind is a genius at play just when it senses danger. You have known yourself better not through what you see but by what you understand, and you understand everything better through the viewer that shapes you. Immersion and diving both endless travels on familiar ground, drowning as it seems was never a matter solved beforehand, as to after it has become too late. Creative thoughts by Sorrenta image by Josh Sommers.
