What does it feel like to run a Foldscope class in a village school in Mindanao? While Foldscopes help us to zoom in on the minuscule, virtual reality and 360 degree cameras are new technologies to do the opposite – to zoom out to appreciate the context and immersively capture the bigger picture. And in a digital community like ours here, we get to travel to places we would normally never get to – both micro and macro!
