Parallel worlds: immersion in location-based experiences

This paper analyses the stages and circumstances for immersion based on quantitative and qualitative feedback from 563 people who took part in a three week long public trial of a location-based audio drama. It defines a model of immersion as a cycle of transient states triggered by events in the overall experience. This model can be used to design for immersion in future experiences.
