Yesterday I received a surprising (in a good way) DC from @rev. They transferred ownership of the /vr channel to me.

Grateful to rev for trusting me and excited to bring together more VR enthusiasts on Farcaster. 

When VR news happens I still go to X to see what my VR friends are saying. I want to bring more of those insights here.

Throwback to when I first got my Rift DK1 in 2013. So much has changed!

When was the first time you tried /vr? What hardware? What experience?

There was an Air New Zealand installment at the Auckland Museum when I was living there. 

Quite a while back, but I remember being awestruck by how encompassing it felt (it also used a camera to create your clothes, etc.). The pixellation took me out of the experience a bit, but overall stuck with me.

Still haven't owned any sets yet, though.

Wanna be the very best. Building @moxiescout. ゼニゼニ

woah. so they'd take a picture of you to create an accurate avatar?

I think so, yeah. So when you looked down you'd see your clothes, skin color, etc.

Turns out it was back in 2014, but still, super memorable.

Just found the case study:

I'm from the States, but lived in NZ about 10 years before moving back to Japan this last year. It's a third home.
