Immersive media is becoming increasingly ubiquitous and already changing our everyday interactions. And in the creative world, artists are starting to show us what a powerful tool augmented reality (AR) can be for storytelling. Adobe has always pushed the boundaries of innovation, collaborated with our community, and embraced new storytelling mediums to broaden creative expression. Given AR's potential to transform experiences of the future, we decided to bring artists in to Adobe even before we had an AR product in development to help us reimagine it.

We began the Adobe AR Residency program two years ago to support two artists at a time to spend three months exploring and creating whatever they can dream of in AR. As part of the residency, artists share feedback and ideas directly with the engineers, designers, and product managers behind the development of Project Aero (currently in private beta), Adobe's AR authoring solution.
