This book delves into the evolving and reciprocal relationship between virtual reality (VR) and earlier audiovisual media. From Cinema to Virtual Reality and Back considers VR as an emerging and changing medium and investigates the expectations it has created in terms of interactive experiences, computer-generated aesthetics, and the sensation of physical presence. The chapters of this book demonstrate that immersive experiences--technologically inherent to VR--transform how we make, engage with, and are affected by moving images. As the collection traces a two-way genealogy accounting for the mutual influences between VR and preceding screen culture, it echoes the relationships between photography and film, theatre and cinema, and cinema and television. As such, it provides research and educational resources on the mutual impacts of VR technology and the cinematic apparatus, the translatability of cinematic aesthetics and narratives, and the effects of the relentless search for immersive experiences on contemporary media consumption.
