Robert Farid Karimi
We're joined this week by Robert Farid Karimi – whose work of late has included a series of interactive analog immersive game experiences involving topics such as community-police relations and the illegal detention of Central American immigrant youth – and who is the co-director of the Public Practice + Generative Play StudioLab and serves as Assistant Professor in the Music, Dance and Theater department at Arizona State University.
It's a fantastic discussion about meaning-making.

This week it’s an AFTER DARK style episode featuring host Noah Nelson and NoPro Arts Editor Laura Hess as they have a conversation that covers the AI works in the LA Art show, the use of AI in Immersive, a bit on the Wonka debacle because we recorded this like three weeks ago, and the overall nature of immersive work particularly as it applies to the art world.

The Key of Dreams
This week on the show we’re joined by Ivan Carić and Emily Carding of The Key of Dreams, the follow up to the hit overnight immersive experience in the Welsh countryside which was reviewed for us last year by Ellery Weil, who also joins us on the pod for the first time.
The Key of Dreams draws on the literary tradition of weird fiction to create a strange and thrilling experience in Treowen Manor an early 17th-century manor house in Monmouthshire where guests stay overnight.
We dive in deep on what goes into delving into the realms of the uncanny in a historic locale in this week’s interview.

Customer Reviews
A deep dive into the immersive realm
My favorite podcasts get down to the bottom of something and then start digging. Every NoPro podcast does this. If you care about immersive you'll fall in love. If you don't, you'll probably still enjoy every episode because Noah dives so heavily into the psyche of his creators
Indispensable, but needs tweaks
Full disclosure: I’m a fan and a supporter, and listen to every single ep, many more than once. This podcast covers this broad, growing industry with passion and commitment. From major events on the global map like Venice & Tribeca (RIP) to the impact of the pandemic, to small, can’t-miss regional and local (Los Angeles, Vegas, Denver, etc.) coverage and reviews, Noah Nelson does the immersive community worldwide an incredible service with this podcast. The host needs to show more restraint with the chatter and digressions, without losing the passion and commitment that make this an essential podcast. Rotation of hosting would go a long way to rectifying that, as the team seems to have lost some key personnel who handled reviews and other features. I’ll still listening, no matter what.
