Wow! The promise of it all. Today we went to the Australian Museum for virtual reality experience..
What we found: 40 people on swivel chairs with headphones and Oculus VR headsets on Samsung phones.
Showing was a 15 min descent to Earth from the International Space Station. Kids liked it.
About as impressive as the Omega 34-bit animation in 1986. And a bit of vertigo for free...oh, and it had no actual real footage..everything was a computer animation.
"A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step" --Chinese philosopher Laozi. Likewise epics can be built out of tiny scribblings. In early 2012, I wandered Europe writing posts on what I found interesting for friends. By the end I had written the equivalent of a 1000-page book. My readers had journeyed with me and so did not ask: "how was it?" Instead we discussed what it meant. I continue scribbling. Mastodon
