Agnese Pietrobon

Writer for XRMust, editorial coordinator of Ultra Magazine, and more broadly an XR consultant, with a devoted love for audiences and for everything-Les Misérables... which no one has adapted into XR yet, so now I have made myself sad.

My background is in social psychology and audience studies, and I serve as vice-president of fanheart3, the cultural association behind the Fanheart3 Awards presented each year during the Venice Film Festival.
