It appears, for us at least, that there is a resurgence of activity in the Virtual Reality space, specifically regarding the use of an app called, “VR Chat.” An excellent place to connect with others and have ‘chats,’ it’s also a fine app for creating virtual worlds that can be visited and shared. Armed with an invite from VR pioneer Greg Panos, we were in worlds for many hours this week, as part of a meetup of the “XR Explorer’s Club,” where we explored a couple of worlds together, as a group! We share our thoughts on this adventure this week. Sun, aka Mrs. Future, then gives us a report on her online with Adam Apollo, a futurist, speaker, and teacher who is involved in consciousness exploration, advanced technology, and the evolution of human potential.
The biggest deal this week was the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas, from which we feature some excerpts of keynote speakers, like Ross Ulbricht, founder of the controversial Silk Road service, recently out of prison. We also have a clip of Michael Saylor, billionaire executive and big Bitcoin advocate. Bobby and Sun share their bitcoin efforts, which you may find very helpful. And this week with end with a report from AI’s Larry and Mary on new research on astrocytes in the function of the human brain. Enjoy!
