Let's dive into a world of revolutionary possibilities with David Scurlock!Episode Higlights11:25 - Now, because the form factors are becoming more streamlined, the technology is becoming more user-friendly. It can now be used for education. Taking a virtual field trip, for example, that allows the students that I've worked with, have never left the environment that they're in. But we put them in the headset, they can take a virtual tour of the White House hosted by Barack and Michelle Obama. I'll be working with a school in Glendale. They're studying space exploration right now. We put them in the headset and they're virtually in the International Space Station and they can experience what weightlessness is. So, that's in essence what I've decided to do is take those kinds of applications, use either virtual reality or augmented reality as a tool and go into schools all the way up into adult learners.17:41 - You could do a digital twin of Podcast Town. So, in other words, it sounds like maybe you've done some of that where you've taken the 360 videos, and now somebody has the headset, they can put on the headset, and just like we're having this conversation, you can walk them right through this studio, and they can actually see the studio. I'll use Direct Supply as an example. They were using it initially for design and development, and architects will design the building. They've designed some of the stages at Summerfest, for example, the architect firms. And before they put the first stake in the ground or paint the walls or move it, bring the client in, let them see it, and actually walk through virtually what that space looks like.28:18 - That thing that looks like the goggles on my head, when I say very quickly, over time, the form factor is going to get lighter. Think of snowmobile glasses or there are some out that surgeons use and they've been using in the military that literally almost look like glasses. And then the other aspect is that as the technology already evolves, and even the Meta Quest 2 now, you don't have to use the controllers. Your hands are actually what you're doing. So, for example, you'll have someone, and they're saying eventually, the screens will go away. You can put on the glasses and I can have a spreadsheet here, I can have all of my screens here and I can fill up the room.39:58 - Then they found out that some of the seniors that were in there and in their studies that are showing this, that they get in the headset for a short time and it can help Alzheimer's, because, all of a sudden, I can go back to Italy. I can walk in the streets of where I grew up, so there's a lot of cases out there that, as a business owner, you can look at and see what they're doing and then start to develop it on your own. And there are now schools, Milwaukee School of Engineering, UW Parkside is going to start doing it, where...

Apple announced some powerful new stuff at their Worldwide Developer Conference. And, as usual, many people in the business press, Twitter, and in Silicon Valley didn't see what happened in plain sight. So here we are again, explaining why this new category is different from the other virtual and reality augmentation devices out there, and why it is important. Welcome to Lochhead on Marketing. The number one charting marketing podcast for marketers, category designers, and entrepreneurs with a different mind. Don't just launch products, launch categories Let me put it to you this way. Google launches products, aka Google Glass. Facebook, launches products, aka Oculus. Meanwhile, Apple does Category Design. It's fascinating to us that category design hides in plain sight. Because what most people got wrong is they think that Apple introduced a product called Vision Pro. And yes, of course, they did that. But they did not make the same mistake that Google and Facebook made, which is they just launch products; Apple designs categories. And they tell you that's exactly what they're doing. Press Release for Apple Vision Pro Here's the headline: introducing Apple Vision Pro, Apple's first spatial computer. And what you have is the new product and brand Apple vision Pro. And they tell you what it is. It's a spatial computer. It's not a VR/AR headset. It's not some kind of other variety – It's a spatial computer. And if you go on to read the press release, what you'll discover is that Tim Cook's quote sums the whole thing up. “Today marks the beginning of a new era for computing,” said Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. Just as the Mac introduced us to personal computing, and iPhone introduced us to mobile computing, Apple Vision Pro introduces us to spatial computing. And that, my friends, is the difference between marketing a category and just a product. Creating a new computing platform And this is what most people miss. And the reason they did it at their worldwide developer conference, is because they want the vision pro spatial computer to become a new compute platform. Just like the iPhone became a new compute platform, the personal computer became a new compute platform. That's what they're doing here. The iPad, etc. became a new platform, a new category of technology, not just a product that they gave to people. Launching a product without a category is like a loose cannon When Google launched Google Glass, they launched a product, they never articulated a problem that that product solved. They never evangelized a different future with that product. What they did was show a bunch of features. And because they didn't provide the strategic context for understanding of what the product was, aka category, they left it up to customers and the media to decide. Google Glass Demo Well, what happened? If you don't control your own category narrative, somebody else will. And so what emerged about Google Glass? Well, number one, because they did the launch in Silicon Valley, the people who used it immediately got the nickname of “glass-holes”, because it was rich assholes using Google Glass and beta and early release driving around in their Tesla's and the like, that sort of drew the ire of much of the world. To hear more on what Apple did right with the launch of their new category, download and listen to this episode.

In today's episode, our host, Head of RL, and Meta CTO Andrew “Boz” Bosworth is joined by Jason Rubin, VP of Metaverse Experiences.Rubin is an industry veteran who started out as co-founder of the gaming studio Naughty Dog, where as a programmer and director he led work on titles like Crash Bandicoot and Jak & Daxter — two pioneering games from the early days of the PlayStation platform. Following that, he worked across a range of gaming, social media, and technology businesses before landing at Oculus in 2014. And he's played an integral role in the development of the VR gaming and content ecosystem ever since. With Meta Quest 3 coming in the fall, Boz and Rubin get into what to expect from our next generation of VR headsets, as well as some of the biggest VR games coming this year, including Asgard's Wrath 2, Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord, Arizona Sunshine 2, and more. They also discuss why they both love photography so much, what's the most slept-on VR game out there right now, and the graphic novel you need to be reading in 2023. For feedback and suggestions, drop Boz a message @boztank on Instagram or Twitter.

But the bad comes first.This week we will cover the church so sick it thinks it's healthy; one man's effort to blame religion for everything; the trendsetters of our culture and how they are setting us all up for disaster; and my 48-hour experiment with the ultimate in isolationism.Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas. He is the host of the Citizen of Heaven podcast. You are encouraged to seek him and the Lakewoods Drive church through Facebook and other social media.

Today on the show, we have storytelling guru John Bucher, who is a renowned strategist, communicator, and cultural mythologist based out of Hollywood, California. Disruptor named him one of the top 25 influencers in Virtual Reality in 2018.“John Bucher is an influencer. He's one of our most prolific contributors.” — HBOHe is the author of six books, including the best-selling Storytelling for Virtual Reality, named by BookAuthority as one of the best storytelling books of all time. John has worked with companies including HBO, DC Comics, The History Channel, A24 Films, and The John Maxwell Leadership Foundation and served as a consultant and writer for numerous film, television, and Virtual Reality projects. Currently, he teaches writing and story courses as part of the Joseph Campbell Writers Room at Studio School in Los Angeles and at the LA Film Studies Center. He has spoken on five continents about using the power of story to reframe how products, individuals, organizations, cultures, and nations are viewed.John is a prolific writer.STORYTELLING FOR VIRTUAL REALITYStorytelling for Virtual Reality serves as a bridge between students of new media and professionals working between the emerging world of VR technology and the art form of classical storytelling. Rather than examining purely the technical, the text focuses on the narrative and how stories can best be structured, created, and then told in virtual immersive spaces. Author John Bucher examines the timeless principles of storytelling and how they are being applied, transformed, and transcended in Virtual Reality. Interviews, conversations, and case studies with both pioneers and innovators in VR storytelling are featured, including industry leaders at LucasFilm, 20th Century Fox, Oculus, Insomniac Games, and Google.A BEST PRACTICE GUIDE TO SEX AND STORYTELLINGA great deal of storytelling in film and television involves narratives that include sexual situations and nudity. The increased amount of online and streaming content outlets has, in turn, increased the number of narratives that involve these once-taboo subjects. Often, even though directors and producers desire to handle such issues with professionalism, sets become awkward when producing these scenes. A Best Practice Guide to Sex and Storytelling serves as a helpful tool for guiding creators through these waters.MASTER OF THE CINEMATIC UNIVERSEMaster of the Cinematic Universe is a guide to the future of transmedia storytelling. Content creators of every flavor are constantly needing to expand the mediums they can work in. This volume serves as a resource for using the timeless truths of story structure to craft established as well as up-and-coming short-form media formats.STORYTELLING BY THE NUMBERSStorytelling By The Numbers is a collection of essays and articles that John Bucher has written for LA Screenwriter and a variety of other outlets. All are meant to strengthen storytellers and scriptwriters. Bucher examines trends and tropes found in current film and television and uses these examples to demonstrate how and why they work as storytelling devices. Writers from any genre, working with any type of narrative, can find jewels of wisdom and applicable nuggets for their own ideas. The collection also features ten powerful writing prompts to assist writers in creating or developing a script idea from a single character.Enjoy my conversation with John Bucher.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/2664729/advertisement

Welcome to the XR MAGAZINE PODCAST! On this episode, we are thrilled to have Jack Southard and Nathan Jew, co-founders of an independent game studio based in San Francisco. These two high-school friends have been building games together for over four years, and their dedication and passion for the craft have earned them recognition in the gaming community. In 2018, their VR game, Overboard, caught the attention of Oculus, and they were invited to join the Oculus Start program. They continued to work on their craft and won the Game Jam in 2020 with their Indivisible VR experience, securing a spot in the Growth Track. Their hard work paid off in 2021 when they released "Gods of Gravity" on the Oculus App Lab. In 2023, their latest project, GoG, was launched on the Quest Store. Stay tuned for an exciting conversation with Jack and Nathan, as they share their passion for gaming and their journey to success. This episode will provide you with insights on: How to get started as a game developer and what to avoid to move forward in their career. The creative process involved developing games and how to balance the technical and artistic aspects of the work. How to organize work and build a team when the game is getting traction. What sort of inspiration and work is needed to become a featured experience in the Oculus store.
