The Spatial Imaging & Digital Imaginaries (SIDI) symposium brings together a diverse group of doctoral researchers and creative practitioners working across a broad range of spatial, visual, and cultural contexts. Reflecting the symposium’s focus on the evolving intersection of spatial practice, immersive technologies, and computational tools, the programme encompasses research and creative enquiry spanning architecture, virtual environments, digital reconstruction, embodied interfaces, and related fields. This breadth of participation supports an interdisciplinary exchange of perspectives on how emerging technologies are reshaping the ways in which space is seen, constructed, experienced, and narrated.
