2. The Key: Abstraction, Embodiment, and Proper Distance within the Virtual Home

Abstract

The emergence of virtual reality (VR) humanitarian filmmaking as a genre over the past ten years has generated a large body of critical debate around the efficacy and ethics of VR as a tool for generating empathy towards marginalised communities. Whilst numerous studies have indicated the potential for VR to impact empathy levels of end users, there have been recurrent critiques of the power dynamics of VR production, as well as the value of empathy as a means of producing social change. Lacking in these discussions has been a detailed consideration of VR aesthetics and the extent to which stylistic strategies impact audience positioning. Through the example of the animated VR experience The Key (Celine Tricart, 2019), this article will explore experience design in the context of ethical debates around humanitarian VR. As an interactive, narrative experience that addresses themes of loss and displacement, The Key can be productively analysed in relation to both VR ethics and wider cultural understandings of home and belonging. Responding to ethical debates around proximity within immersive experiences, the article will examine aesthetic strategies within The Key for ensuring what Roger Silverstone has labelled “proper distance” between the user and the virtually represented space. Through its use of visual abstraction and simplification, as well as the limited physical interaction it affords with its virtual world, the virtual home of The Key will be understood as a site of resistance to universalising narratives of home, one which invites critical reflection on the factors that determine our access to shelter.

Abstract

Summary▪We augment the well-known susceptible – infected – recovered – deceased (SIRD) epidemiological model to include vaccination dynamics, implemented as a piecewise continuous simulation. We calibrate this model to reported case data in the UK at a national level,▪Our modelling approach decouples the inherent characteristics of the infection from the degree of human interaction (as defined by the effective reproduction number,Re). This allows us to detect and infer a change in the characteristic of the infection, for example the emergence of the Kent variant,▪We find that that the infection rate constant (k) increases by around 89% as a result of the B.1.1.7 (Kent) COVID-19 variant in England,▪Through retrospective analysis and modelling of early epidemic case data (between March 2020 and May 2020) we estimate that ∼1.2M COVID-19 infections were unreported in the early phase of the epidemic in the UK. We also obtain an estimate of the basic reproduction number as,R0= 3.23,▪We use our model to assess the UK Government’s roadmap for easing the third national lockdown as a result of the current vaccination programme. To do this we use our estimated model parameters and a future forecast of the daily vaccination rates of the next few months,▪Our modelling predicts an increased number of daily cases as NPIs are lifted in May and June 2021,▪We quantify this increase in terms of the vaccine rollout rate and in particular the percentage vaccine uptake rate of eligible individuals, and show that a reduced take up of vaccination by eligible adults may lead to a significant increase in new infections.
