Join this. @ArthurRoingBaer has been privately relaying us the vision. High potential that Moving Castles is one of the most conceptually important projects of 2022.
The first Moving Castle is slowly taking shape. Join this Thursday as we show what we have been working on for the first time.

Stop waiting for #b3d to just as good as #zbrush to jump in. You got it wrong. The more artists sculpt in Blender, the better it gets! #opensource

AWESOME breakdown of Valve's latest patents by @SadlyItsBradley. Valve figured out varifocal optics without moving parts by using a series of pancaked polarized lenses eye tracking (!) Sounds AMAZING! Also auto IPD, won't need glasses, return to OLED, & less variability in FOV

There is only one indispensable book on online world design, and it is Dr Richard Bartle's DESIGNING VIRTUAL WORLDS. It predates World of Warcraft, and yet is not obsolete. As of today, Richard is giving it away for free here: mud.co.uk/richard/DesigningV…

Nice article, proud to see two of our apps made the list.
Our #VR team is frequently asked what programs to recommend for patients. We maintain a list here: virtualmedicine.org/favorite…. In addition, this new article reviewed over 1700 programs and found 11 that are free and considered to be therapeutically valuable: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…

Fascinating and visionary essay from 1988 where John Walker @Fourmilab, the founder of Autodesk, urges his company to seize the moment and enter the field of virtual reality (he preferred the term Cyberspace). Rest of his website was fun to browse too! fourmilab.ch/autofile/e5/cha…

Rare footage from Cyberthon, a 24-hour #VR event presented by Whole Earth Institute in 1990. Steward Brand, Brain Eno, Jaron Lanier, Timothy Leary, Terence McKenna, William Gibson etc in the house... cool vibes vimeo.com/169075463

Feeling a bit usless in this crisis so: If you have an idea for an app/ VR piece that will help people specifically to do with Corvid-19 or self isolation - talk to me and I'll build it, free of charge.
