Metaverses are immersive virtual worlds accessed through gaming consoles, VR headsets and computers. In them, you can do almost anything you’d do in the real world, and express your individuality through fashion. And you can start to learn how to interact with others in the metaverse, such as playing sports in teams. Interestingly, the metaverse itself is already changing what these activities will likely mean to us in future.

In this first episode of Fast Forward’s second season, writer and presenter Ghislaine Boddington meets Michaela Larosse of digital fashion house The Fabricant and Professor Andy Miah, Chair of Science Communication and Future Media at University of Salford, UK.

Fast Forward is produced for global cybersecurity brand Kaspersky’s cyberculture channel Tomorrow Unlocked.
