WHAT WILL WE CALL OUR CREATIONS IN XR/CREATIVE/IMMERSIVE TECH?

Designing a new business card to include my upskill to the new XR art medium/creative tech art genre/multimedia art form. What is the taxonomic term for creations in theatre, film, visual art, performance art, music & storytelling which are enhanced by or fully created in VR/AR/MR? "Digital" is dated & smacks of office work. I'm also using laser projection & holograms so "creative tech art form/genre/medium" appeals to me. Suggestions?

LEARNING JAPANESE FOR 2024

Working away on Nihongo thanks to DuoLingo. Thought I wouldn't get caught up in the competitive game aspect but you can't escape your own character! I've passed the tipping point and no longer have to make notes as I undertand everything that is being said and most of my lessons are perfect. That said, while I can understand foreigners speaking Japanese, I have difficulty with the speed and accents of native Japanese speakers whom I listen to on Netflix and Youtube videos. My Happy Marriage is my favourite anime and Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories is my favourite drama series. I understand some of what they are saying but not all. Next step: a personal tutor.
