It's finally happened. I have a PhD in immersive learning. Someone on LinkedIn is trying to convince me to read a paper on the definition of immersion. Mansplain much?
Superhero women being mansplained to. I do not condone violence.

XR Devs: When you try to attach an asset but forgot to zero out it’s position Models: We are distancing ourselves from constructed ideas about femininity Viktor & Rolf: took inspiration from the absurdity of the images we see on our phones.#NotAFilter
People believe that instructional designers are t/ people who are really 💯 at using t/ campus LMS – folks who can create new courses, help faculty get their content uploaded & maybe even help w/ multimedia. Unfortunately, literally none of those things are instructional design.1

I've been curious how to add in the "cinematic" feel to captures. Now I know, slow down my movement. 😏🫴 🎥🦥

The stats say that if you are white, male, & straight, you have not been harassed in the #metaverse. Any other category? You have. 😥Sobering thought for designers & devs. Important article. "Many harassers are either oblivious to their harm, or are unaware of its impact."

I investigated harassment in the metaverse, and found a few insights that may help us tackle the problem. Long and short of it is that we don't know the area well enough. The full piece is below, but here's a summary: immersivewire.com/p/harassment-m #metaverse

I am thrilled to see the increasing interest and progress in the field of #VR and #transcendence. As someone who has been researching VR and #awe for years, it is gratifying to see our own work being recognized and referenced in this exciting field

"And there were in the same country shepherds 👨‍🌾 abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock 🐑 by night 🌟 . And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them 😇 : and they were sore afraid. 😨 1/3

Sometimes I feel like my phone and the electric company know more about winter storms than I do, yet they sound like a friend warning me of old boyfriends back in town: "Diaz is coming. Impacts could be severe. Be prepared. We care about you. Reach out if you need help."😟📲💨☃️

I'm coining "snuggle terms". = words that appear near other words, but they've fallen out of the lexicon so they are often not found in current searches. Like computer-based learning (CBL for eLearning) or highly interactive virtual environments (HIVE for VR). So say we all.

It was an honor to be a juror for Best Immersive Performance at #Raindanceimmersive this year. I didn't share much during judging but now want to spotlight these 7 shows and encourage everyone to experience them! (thread)

So wait, Twitter News no longer contains news? 😕😯 It shows only "Trending" hashtags😟...no news source posts. Twitter News was my main source of news through the pandemic, with YouTube filling in the gaps. I guess it's been 🐟 since it still shows NY election coverage. 👉🗓️
Confused man jerks head around. But really, I'm making this exact same facial expression of confusion, looking up and around.

People who have video calls with me today will be doing it on my terms in @frame_vr. There will be shaders, basketball, and my music playing in the background so loud that we can't hear ourselves or even attempt to be productive. Can't wait for my meetings today 😁

These Twitter stories about "hardcore" and worshiping work as a god...I am getting SO many flashbacks to working at iLRN and WGU. 😫#Trauma #Bullying #harassment #Illegal #TechBros #GirlBoss #Disgraced #Bankrupt #KeepWorkInItsPlace #IsntThereAnyoneWhoKnowsWhatXmasIsAllAbout

"Hardcore" workers are sleeping at the office again. But whether long hours equals true grit is a perennial debate and a source of conflict between generations of tech workers, managers and employees, venture capitalists and everyone else. washingtonpost.com/technology/202

If I may, you seem to be looking for something "like Twitter". That seems to be your search design flaw? 👈🫤

During the last Melon Husk induced freakout, it did take a while for me to get my invite/confirmation by email. 2 days if I remember correctly. The fediverse seems to have been crawling the past couple of days as well, so that ain't helping
