Can an audience of design thinkers absorb the core processes and ideological frameworks of XR product design and find themselves ready to leave 2D design behind in just 20 minutes? Let’s find out. 

This talk is a condensed version of a graduate-level class I teach at NYU that unpacks the tools, processes and ethical considerations of VR design—specifically architected to help 2D designers transition into XR. The syllabus culminates design strategies acquired through eight-plus years of work in VR, nearly six years at Meta Reality Labs (née Oculus), and the development of multiple VR design systems (like Horizon Worlds) and XR design publications.
