T he Enemy, a “virtual reality experience at the crossroads of journalism, technology and science” (Phi Centre, 2018), is an art installation by Karim Ben Khelifa, a longtime war photographer and photojournalist. Frustrated by the minimal impact of war images on the attitude of the general public toward armed conflict and its concomitant suffering, Ben Khelifa turned to virtual reality technology to create an immersive experience in the hope of redressing public indifference and galvanizing antiwar sentiment (MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology, n.d., para. 3). In recent years, other practicing artists, museum curators, and art educators have acknowledged pedagogical potentials of implementing augmented and virtual reality technologies within their projects. Augmented reality simulates artificial objects in the real environment, whereas virtual reality uses computer technology to create a simulated environment and places the user inside an artificial environment (Bardi, 2019). In augmented reality, various sensors and algorithms are used to determine the position and orientation of a camera. Technology renders the 3D graphics of the virtual object as they would appear from the viewpoint of the camera. In virtual reality, rather than locating a camera within a physical environment, the position of the user’s eyes is located within

虚拟现实促进共情：遇到敌人

敌人是“长期从事新闻，技术和科学十字路口的虚拟现实体验”（披披中心，2018年），是长期战争摄影师和新闻摄影人Karim Ben Khelifa的艺术装置。战争图像对公众对武装冲突及其随之而来的苦难的影响受到最小影响，本·凯利法（Ben Khelifa）转向虚拟现实技术，以创造沉浸式体验，以期消除公众的冷漠情绪并激发反战情绪（麻省理工学院中心艺术，科学与技术，第3段。近年来，其他从业艺术家，博物馆策展人和艺术教育者也认识到在其项目中实施增强和虚拟现实技术的教学潜力。增强现实模拟真实环境中的人造物体，而虚拟现实使用计算机技术创建模拟环境并将用户置于人工环境中（Bardi，2019）。在增强现实中，各种传感器和算法用于确定相机的位置和方向。技术可以渲染虚拟对象的3D图形，就像它们从相机的角度来看一样。在虚拟现实中，用户的眼睛位置不位于物理环境中，而是位于内部 技术可以渲染虚拟对象的3D图形，就像它们从相机的角度来看一样。在虚拟现实中，用户的眼睛位置不位于物理环境中，而是位于内部 技术可以渲染虚拟对象的3D图形，就像它们从相机的角度来看一样。在虚拟现实中，用户的眼睛位置不位于物理环境中，而是位于内部
