I just posted a long-read reflecting on the @Snap Lensfest XR & AI trends covered in my latest 11-episode Voices of VR podcast series. Snap is betting on indie XR devs to help them go against the biggest companies in the world in their AR glasses race: https://t.co/Mf8pGAytCM

Okay so confirmed the GalaxyXR might be a viable replacement for the quest pro for VRChat. If the latency is good (and vd uses special snapdragon tricks already) this might be crazy good.

I'll be at Meta Connect, which by all accounts seems to be focused a bit more on AI glasses & wearables. A number of VR YouTube content creators weren't invited, and I had to push for an invite myself. But I'll recording oral history interviews, & let me know if you'll be there.

I published 41 interviews on the Voices of VR covering AWE Past & Present, @ARealityEvent. I cover XR & AI like a hyperobject over space & time through the modality of oral history, & this series is 24.5 hours long spanning lots of topics. See my cheat sheet with tags & metadata

I can't believe I'm posting our interview with @kentbye and @voicesofvr. It was a real treat going on an immersive adventure with him while we were at @Tribeca Creator's Market. Such a thrill to be on this show I've listened to for over a decade.

Someone asked me what I thought of VR games in general in 2025 on our discord. I spent too much time writing this so figured I'd share it elsewhere. This is written off the top of my head so apologies for overbroad generalizations. Coffee-shop tier banter.
