MIT Reality Hack Hackathon: Part 2 – Thoughts & Impressions
This is part two of my coverage of the MIT Reality Hack where I talk about a few of the projects, and some high level impressions.
MIT Reality Hack Hackathon: Part 1
This is the transcript to accompany a GIIDE post. I just spent a wonderfully fun, intelligent, scintillating, and completely engaging 5 days at MIT at the \”Reality Hack\” hackathon as a mentor, and judge. This is part 1, where I\’ll be talking about the experience and what happens in a hackathon like this. Part 2 …
MIT Reality Hack | Hackathon
I\’m extremely excited to have been chosen as a mentor and judge at the upcoming MIT Reality Hack, March 23-27, 2022. Five straight days of watching students and creators come together to create XR projects – the last one (in 2020) saw 75 teams create projects that included climate change visualizations in VR, AR storyboarding …
What follows is the transcript for a GIIDE entry, audio storytelling softward that makes audio fully interactive.

I was asked by a journalist to answer the question, \”What do you see as the biggest trends in AR/VR/XR in 2022?\” – and although I typically think a little further out than that, here are some of my thoughts on the matter. I took out the bits he\’s using in the article, and will post links to that when it comes out – but these are what I think some of the most important short term trends for XR will be next year.
The end of loneliness
Reposted from linkedin Heard a really sweet story today by Donna Z. Davis, Ph.D. at AWE (Augmented World Expo): she told the audience about an elderly woman with Parkinson\’s, who regularly \”meets\” her tuxedo clad physically distant son (avatar) in VR to go dancing with him. *That\’s* the power of VR for me. Not the whiz bang isn\’t …
Younger me is calling
Just read this article: \”Through the digital lens: How VR can inspire better managers\”. Subheader is, \”Virtual reality has the power to change the world. But first, it has to change how straight white men think.\” It stuck a very personal chord. Doing my MBA at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University, I was one of …
