In 2005, Jeromy Barber moved from New York City to a small town in Texas.If Jeromy's life was a screenplay, and I was editing? I would probably advise the writer to make it just a touch less formulaic. It is fantastic. Jeromy has trained with the comedy monolith, Second City. Founded the improv focused Beta Theater in Houston and, of course, owns and operates Dinolion, a quote “Creative video house” which rocks the tagline “Projects we love with people we love.” and does everything from video marketing to, of course, immersive experience design. My read on The Dinolion brand, as a creative expression of Jeromy’s style, is bright and brash and I think can only really be described as brilliantly refined chaos. But that’s just my read on it, go check out their reel for yourself after the show; also, fantastic. Jeromy’s way of thinking about the creation of immersive experiences is incredibly innovative. So, again for you practicing or aspiring immersive creators out there, these two episodes will hopefully likely spark the same kind of curiosity and excitement that I walked away with. And for the immersive fans, adventurers, connoisseurs? Have you ever heard of a one-person immersive experience in a plane? Once again, fantastic.Selected Links:Dinolion-Facebook-InstagramThe Rabbit CageBeta TheaterBill CallahanDavid lynchFestival of DisruptionTranscendental MeditationSecond CityThe Steam Powered HourPollok TexasLonely girl 15Cassie is WatchingAlternate Reality GameOverlook film festivalThe Axelrad Beer GardenShow Notes:Jeromy’s fictional world [3:08]What is Dinolion?
