The @htcvive Flow is an interesting product. Loving the look, the form factor, and the adjustable diopter lenses. I miss either an OLED display or higher resolution and some more powerful graphics, but very excited for the product line nonetheless: youtu.be/xyywAfzRVV0 #vr
I recently created a Discord channel for the @AltVR_YouTube community. If you are interested in talking about alternative, experimental, non-gaming VR content, please consider joining us here! It's great to get to know people with the same interests :) discord.gg/sSVRUYyFXu
My YouTube channel AltVR just reached 500K views! If you are interested in VR beyond gaming, be sure to check it out. In my latest video, for instance, I discuss my thoughts on blockchain Metaverse approaches such as @decentraland and @TheSandboxGame: youtu.be/5WsGtvaB-os #vr
The Matrix introduced philosophical skepticism to the masses. 20 years and a few VR headsets later, the topic is more actual than ever. Read my newest Medium piece on the Simulation Hypothesis here: medium.com/@VindenesJ/fa4… #vr #matrix #simulationhypothesis
If you're interested in a broader perspective on the potential of VR technologies, consider following me on my Medium! Here, I write about ethics and privacy, blockchain tech, and the innovative potential of VR tech for individuals and society: #vr medium.com/@VindenesJ
#NFT collectors: what makes you decide for a project? Is it exclusivity, uniqueness, aesthetics/liking the art, or artist reputation/authority? Or something completely else! Would love to hear perspectives on this.
One would imagine @Snowden to be a prime candidate to appreciate the liberties offered by VR tech of being social in a shared environment. Now, @Meta is of course unacceptable. But sadly, blockchain solutions are also lacking in their ability to compete: medium.com/@VindenesJ/edw…
While I am a big believer in the potential of #blockchain tech to create a decentralised Metaverse, approaches based on exclusive and scarce virtual land is entirely backwards and fails to grasp at what the Metaverse will become. Here’s why: link.medium.com/O0wNnSqxIlb #Decentraland
How should we study VR UX and Interaction? In our recent paper, we detail the "VR Go-along method", which involves navigating the virtual environment while immersed with a user. For more info, you can read the abstract and download the article for free: researchgate.net/publication/35…
"Lanier’s grand vision for VR was that it could allow deep, true, and genuine human connection. His worst nightmare was that it would be the perfect technology for unconscious human manipulation: The perfect tool for the perfect, perfectly evil Skinner box."

Facebook is Facebook. Don't write about the name, write about what they do, because that's what matters. Paperwork doesn't change the nature of a thing.
I'm very interested in the potential of blockchain technologies for social VR. To get a foot in the door, I decided to make my @VRChat Party Avatar into an NFT on the #ethereum blockchain. VRChat doesn't have NFT integrations yet, but I had some fun :) #blockchain #metaverse #vr
Virtual Reality enthusiasts should definitely explore Lucid Dreaming, as it already is what we one day hope VR will become! A fun little story in my newest @Medium article: medium.com/@VindenesJ/why… #vr #luciddreaming
I am giving away 1000 @Ravencoin to the person who manages to guess my seed phrase based on my VR Mind Controlled Memory Palace: youtu.be/YDU17sjN9mE #Giveaways #CryptoGiveaway
Had some fun creating a VR Mind Palace with a Brain-Computer Interface. I use it to store my cryptocurrency recovery phrase. Hopefully someone doesn't crack it?? 😅 youtu.be/YDU17sjN9mE #vr #ravencoin #giveaway

Today @Meta announced a prototype microfluidic haptic feedback glove. Components appear to be substantively identical to patented technology HaptX spent a decade developing. We welcome competition in microfluidic haptics; but competition must be fair for the industry to thrive.
The proposition that *everything* will be spatialized fails to grasp the reason why we've spent the last few (very prolific) centuries abstracting things to 2D: reality & experience are messy. Our ability to successfully manipulate them lies in cutting *down* dimensions.
New @Medium piece out, discussing the ultimate danger of @Meta. As a tldr, I'll quote Jaron Lanier's warning: "Turing^Moore’s Law * (Pavlov, Watson, Skinner) = Zombie Apocalypse" medium.com/@VindenesJ/how…
@nifty_capital I get this viewpoint - but FB is losing ~10B a year on the metaverse initiatives. Lowering the 30% Oculus fee a bit so they can say 'the 30% Apple fee is outrageous' with a straight face would cost almost nothing relatively. They chose this loss leader path, embrace it.
