1/ Since 2017, Imisi 3D has been advocating for the use of immersive technologies as a disruptor of the education grand challenge on the continent. We believe that virtual reality as a learning aid can be a solution in our under resourced, over populated schools…

i'm building a super fun 3D maze game called Go North and i'm looking for early game testers! if you want very early access to this unique puzzle game, please fill the (very short) form below. would also appreciate RTs. forms.gle/2ZzRGsJBhLBUHg…

Today, I took part at “The Gathering”, a get together of the extended reality community in Lagos. It was put together by @Judithoko of @Imisi3d. It was held on the sidelines of the ongoing The Omniverse event at the Landmark Event place in Lagos It was most heartwarming to see many Nigerians enthusiastic about the future of #XR in this clime. It was also disheartening to realize that many lack the resources to pursue their dreams. Thankfully though, the community is ready to help. Shout out to @Imisi3d , @ARVRAfrica, AfricaXR and of course to @vhcilab. #VR

If you are in Africa and are interested in XR and or don't know where/how to start, the ARVR Africa community is a great place to begin.

So excited for this, bravo @tadeajiboye!

It's going to be a great week. The Lab is open, and we are on ground with XR hardware, support and a conducive space to help you bring your XR ideas to life. Plus our September AR/VR Africa Meetup and Masterclass is on the way. Are you ready?

Great article by my fave @OpeAdetayo1 about @StartArchiving, a startup aiming to digitise every edition of every newspaper published in Nigeria since 1 January 1960. The project is spearheaded by the great @FuadXIV and deserves your support! theguardian.com/global-develop…

My work is the deepest expression of my love for #Nigeria. With it, I get the privilege to contribute to shaping the future we all desire. May we not labour in vain!

Stories of "We Will" (Resilience and overcoming): "What helped me was learning to receive help. Before then, I didn't ask for help and I had to learn to ask for help. I also held on to the realization that every sunset brought me closer to my goal." #wwlagriots #wwlagriots2023

Our #wwlagriots #wwlagriots2023 masterclass today is full of pearls of wisdom! "“I am not African because I was born in Africa but because Africa was born in me.” ― Kwame Nkrumah . #wewillleadafrica

Stories of "We Will" (Resilience and overcoming): "My identity was shaped around overachieving, so my first academic failure helped me ask: Who am I beyond the accomplishments and accolades. They are important but don't define you." #wwlagriots #wwlagriots2023 #wewillleadafrica
