Frankly stoked to be on the @ResearchVRcast! Thank you @Azadux & @razialo for your ongoing deep diving. Bringing your medium-spanning perspective to bear makes digging in the #VR #AR #UX interaction details double-plus fun. twitter.com/ResearchVRcast…

@GioNakpil @agathayu Same

Without revealing your age, what’s the first video game you remember playing? ✨

National Youth Poet Laureate Amanda Gorman at Presidential Inauguration youtu.be/2mTmTdOgv0M via @YouTube More of this. We need more of this.

Experiencing a feeing I’ve felt two, maybe three times, of my whole body decompressing with a tangible “poof” during swearing in. Only felt this a couple times after weeks long sustained meditation. Feeling same “poof” without even trying today.

@ali_heston @Cabbibo Wish I had the term “completionist affordances” a few years ago. 2 words deftly replace a paragraph’s worth which I repeated a lot. However did find that the more completionist we made our affordances, the more frequently we heard “I swear I felt that!” Faux haptics = faptics.

@Cabbibo Yeah, like kinda menacing. You accidentally made eye contact with the baby-god or something.

@Protodeep Like bladerunner 2049 style?

What does this sound like?

@agathayu I once lectured for 12 straight hours teaching Maya animation to 3 classes in a row. 6 hours of VC is easily as tiring as that was.

Talking all day really takes a toll on me. Respect to all the teachers/comedian/people who talk a lot out there.

Just to be clear and go on record: Trump is a racist. You can’t vote Republican without voting for racism.

@gangof4official Andy Gill & Gang of Four taught me to dance, hard, with my middle finger in the air. Taught me I could flip my lid on the drums, groove to the point of fully irrational abandon & think about the world simultaneously. Gave me the gift of a few of the most alive moments of my life.

Andy Gill.

Here’s the start of #FormulaE race 12 which was action packed flag-to-flag! Seats were facing the Statue is Liberty! So wicked cool, going back to Brooklyn tomorrow for the final race of the season. Championship might even be decided tomorrow! Double-Plus Rad!

Race 12 of #FormulaE hasn’t even started yet and it’s already a blast. This is start of qualifying.

SUNNY SMOG ALERT!! SUNNY SMOG ALERT!! New weekly #webcomic Secret: I’ve seen the whole story. You’re going to DIg it.

Happy #Krinkle Season Everybody

If the hive mind is correct, I got a good look at the cool #meteor trail from the #berkeley hills on my evening walk.

So my favorite human, ⁦@SunnySmog⁩ continues to Dig fascinating concepts. Say you’re a kid who digs #VR #AR and might want to make some. #Proprioception might be pretty wicked good to know. sunnysmog.com/Proprioception…

@MrSchubert @facebook Thanks for the kind words everybody. That's truly appreciated and amazing.

Breaking radio silence: after a lovely holiday I've started in a new role as Product Designer on the #SocialVR team at @Facebook. Humbled to work with world class experts and excited to realize social's potential. ICYMI here's the final project @Protodeep and I worked on at Leap

It’s one of my hero’s birthday today @Malala. One of my other hero’s, @SunnySmog did this inspired illustration of her. #MalalaDay

More shiny experiments in immersive UX. This one focuses on quickly switching between embodied superpowers. By @MrSchubert and @Protodeep at @LeapMotion, also ready for download now! youtube.com/watch?v=LFRKEm…

Exclusive: Validating an Experimental Shortcut Interface with Flaming Arrows & Paper Planes ow.ly/KLgb30kpIpt @LeapMotion @Protodeep @MrSchubert

@zachkinstner @JoshuaCorvinus @MrSchubert @LeapMotion I'm with you. So maybe lines connecting the hands to the center point? Lines that change based on distance somehow? Maybe they get thinner, have more tick marks, glow, have animated marching ants? Just riffing of course.

@JoshuaCorvinus @Protodeep @MrSchubert @LeapMotion I'm thinking the indicator's most important purpose is showing the user where the "center" point is (the further you move from center, the faster you go). The speed meter is more abstract (% of max speed) -- just looking at the world is probably the better way to assess speed.

Hey @MrSchubert and @Protodeep, in your research, which @LeapMotion gestures/interactions have worked (or would work) well for slide/turn style locomotion? twitter.com/zachkinstner/s…
