About the Metaverse>> In a VR world, it isn't about your age, it is about your experience. >> It can be easy to forget that the avatar is a conscious, real person. >> The environment creates opportunities to explore who you are as a person. >> A Metaverse is a highly immersive virtual world where people gather to socialize, play, and work. "A Metaverse, you can think of as a festival or a fair where you have the hub space, the main festival ground. And anytime you go up to a stage or a craft area or the the circus tent or this art piece, every single one of those is its own universe, all connected to this one, Metaverse". -Athena Demos Thank you Athena Demos for being on the show!
