title = "Doing phenomenology: The empathetic implications of CREW{\textquoteright}s head-swap technology in {\textquoteleft}W{\textquoteright} (Double U)",
abstract = "This chapter offers a critical analysis of CREW{\textquoteright}s {\textquoteleft}W{\textquoteright} (Double U), a performative experiment that uses immersive omnidirectional video to swap the vision of two participants, allowing them to move in each other{\textquoteright}s field of vision. The chapter investigates how the performance, as a case of {\textquoteleft}doing phenomenology{\textquoteright}, might help us understand the phenomenological meaning of looking at the world from someone else{\textquoteright}s perspective. The performance will be analyzed from a technological point of view and from the perspective of the actual behavior of the participants, offering two different readings of how the performance produces a particular kind of empathy.",
