Is there recess in the Metaverse? (Ep. 110)
Manage episode 320487193 series 97861
You can't lift your smartphone these days without seeing multiple headlines about "the metaverse" -- though no one seems to truly know what precisely the metaverse is. In this episode, Eugene and David discuss our conception of what the metaverse could be, what our lives in the metaverse could look like -- BTS concert? Quidditch? recess? -- and the importance of human connection. As always, thank you for listening!*
* Note: Ironically, David made multiple references in today's episode to the "Staples Center," the FORMER name of the sports and entertainment complex in Downtown L.A. Of course, the building is now known as Crypto.com Arena. We regret the error.
