Dreaming about Total Immersion - Greg and Nicolas

"I'm sorry. But I had to hack your eyes..." Controlling Reality - Greg Demchak, Nicolas Waern Do Innovation Leaders Dream of Electric Sheep? What is Varjo, and why should you care? - What will happen when we change reality and are we ready for a true-to-life metaverse? Are we already there? What was supposed to be a conversation about AR/VR in the built environment, became instead this Sci-fi inspired pandora’s box discussion. This is a 10-minute segment from a 60-minute discussion and an extra episode that goes Beyond Buildings into the RAW discussion territory. We listen in to a discussion about world-changing perspectives with Greg Demchak, Director of the Digital Innovation Lab at Bentley Systems, and Nicolas Waern, the founder and creator of Beyond Buildings. In the discussion, Nicolas Waern and Greg Demchak zoom in and out to the virtual/augmented reality world, discussing how modern technologies could seriously disrupt what we define as reality today. Nicolas had not had the time to look into Varjo at all before this conversation so everything was just based on those first words from Greg: “Did you see that video too from Varjo….” This is truly a conversation that goes beyond buildings, into the universe, and then back to planet earth. Because even though we would be uploaded to the cloud, the cloud is still someone else’s computer.
