This position paper approaches issues in the ethics of virtual reality particularly around notions of art as academic research, collaborative ethnographic media production, consent, and representation. These issues are explored through examples of research with the Yong community in Thailand, investigating the use of 360° video for cultural documentation and preservation. Possible ways of addressing some of the ethical issues in virtual reality are suggested, drawing upon collaborative ethnography, collaborative media production, and Value-Sensitive Design.
