Exploring VR
As humans, we operate in both digital and physical worlds.
I'd argue we have done so for thousands of years - what is a 'digital world' if not a fiction we've created and put ourselves in? How is that different, then, from other fiction worlds we create for ourselves, like fictional universes in books, or shared 'dreams' or myths?
VR is just the latest incarnation of the idea that we as humans operate in there here-and-now and in the somewhere-else-made-up.
In this example a colleague and I explored the possibility of leadership development in VR; what kind of experiences can this technology afford? What do people want to experience from it?
Years before Meta went all into this space or Apple released its Vision Pro, the talented folks at Opaque Media created training for astronauts on the ISS, and we began a conversation with them about the future of executive development.
