Everything Immersive This Week (2/24/2018)
Get cozy with all of the immersive news from the last seven days
This week on NoPro: we discussed some of the issues with Steven Soderbergh’s Mosaic as well as making a defense of the “choose-your-own-adventure” format, one of our own snuck into a supervillain convention in Brooklyn and made it back out, another NoPro writer participated in an underground revolution in London, while a different NoPro reviewer boarded a subway train and time-travelled back to 1964.
Our LA and NYC newsletters come out this weekend! And don’t forget you can always turn to our Now Playing section to see what else might be available.
