In this research episode, Lindsey steps back to reflect on her conversations with Marjan Khatibi, Scott Singeisen, and Jessica Hewitt, exploring how technology shapes our capacity for awe. She moves through virtual reality's power to facilitate awe and empathy, the flattening effect of pre-exposure on discovery, and the way recollection lets us reignite awe after an experience fades. Lindsey concludes by setting the stage for the next research episode: how a conscious shift in how we engage with awe and technology can affect how we design.
