Theres levels to VR events

The vision pro reviews are coming in! Comment sections there have made me accutely aware again that I have to drastically change my approach to covering this technology for people outside of the Social VR space. Sometimes I forget that we really are in a niche of a niche here.

Words can't describe how much I despise when Germans act really stereotypically German. Its like they invent rules just for the power trip of enforcing them -.- I know this exists everywhere in the world but we are just especially good at it aren't we

To all my German or EU VR people - I am selling my whole FBT setup because of a move. If you are interested hit me up. I would go a bit lower in price for people in vrc. ONLY selling the whole package, just want to get rid of this setup stress free :) kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/ulti…

Your advisor watching you work on your dissertation

For this years' #ica24 Conference, I went a bit out of my comfort zone and presented quantitative findings from a current project of our chair at cnstlk. We analysed football fans' behaviour on twitter during the Qatar WC! My first time working with LLMs & Python, was fun :)⚽️

Until Friday, July 12, we are conducting a qualitative survey to analyze the identity of social VR users under the hashtag #IdentityInMetaverse. The survey takes about 10-20 minutes to complete. Please participate and share! Nem x Mila ⏬Survey link⏬ forms.gle/YhuCD6Qcb9Ki16…

Hundreds of people here for the Second Life 21st birthday gathering! That's tiny me sitting onstage.

Letsgooo our uni has a VR chair now

Very good resource on early Social VR

sigh... 🌊⛵🏴‍☠🦜

53 minute Orion video, alright sitting down for this

Rekordbox improved stems today, I cannot believe it

I want to leave so I'll give it another try! See you over there :)

I was asked by Friedrich Krotz a while back to investigate VRChat in the context of a digital utopia for merz journal. So this is a text of mine (in German) that looks into that! Tried a more approachable writing style here, curious if it works 🤔 merz-zeitschrift.de/alle-ausgaben/…
