member interview questions:

• What aspects of the metaverse are most important to you?
• What got you into the metaverse?
• What would you like people to know that is not listed in your bio?
• What is your project about?
• What frustrations do you have in this space?
• What other relevant communities do you belong to? What do you do there?

Please contribute questions:

1. if you're being interviewed, what would you want to be asked?
2. if you think of interesting people and projects you would want to learn more about, what would you ask them?

humbletim: Interview from the future!!! But how many years in the future... 10 years is not enough.
Getting away of the dampening effect of reality. A plasticity of playing with thoughts and perspectives
taking account of what happens, after what happens next.

what's the single most profound impact the metaverse, or the pursuit of it, has had on your life?

[indiebio]

mrmetaverse: Hii I'm helping with an AI hackathon which will include Magick as a key tool for agent development. OMI protocols and XR based additions are of course welcome. It starts next Friday. The theme is AI for Good, and focuses on agent creation. If you'd like to participate virtually you can sign up here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/chesapeake-ai-hackathon-2024-tickets-862582195567

ECLIPSE!
Keyframe had a Texas festival but was closed a day early for tornado warnings, much apocalyptic.
SoloSolipsist had a great experience in Montreal

indiebio had partial eclipse, good enough for a beer (proof in the chunk missing in the green screen glare dot)

Working group updates:
Publicity team: jimmy been busy
glTF doing gravity stuff
MSF, avatar wearables. new Chair, more members needed. Currently about voxel interoperability. Need a clearer value statement to trade off opportunity cost, what do people get for attending?
