This Wednesday, Unreal NYC is back for the first event of 2026 ! 6:30p at an amazing new venue: Planet X Studios in Williamsburg, sporting 14,000 sq ft and housing one of the largest LED volumes in NYC. Thanks to Darin X Friedmann for hosting us! Speakers include...

Our teams are scouring the streets, offering shelter to homeless New Yorkers, and helping bring people inside. If you see anyone in need of help, please call 311 so our outreach teams can assist.

What are you doing Alex? You signed up to be a mentor to get more sleep than last time you did this 😴

Wow the Empower app is awesome— like Lyft or Uber but way better for the drivers. And it’s cheaper. $5 promo: 4K7EMH driveempower.com

Wouldn’t be a trip to Boston without making time to catch up with @mattworkmancine.bsky.social ! Thoughtful discussion (over stone bowl bibimbap) about the state of many different industries (film, VFX, XR, games) and where they’ll all be over the next few years.

ICE detained a 5-year-old child. There is no justifying this. "Can you still contort your morality to justify a world where monsters are real?" My extremely angry column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Arrived in Boston for @realityhackatmit.com ! I brought 500 pounds of headsets and one Movin3D mocap camera.

I keep thinking about this scene and how none of this happens if the Empire troops in the crowd aren’t poorly trained rookies totally unprepared for a large protest. youtu.be/ayxg-41hssE?...

New: meet ELITE, the Palantir app ICE is using to find neighborhoods to raid. Map interface; officers search for immigrants; click person to bring up individual dossier. This is clearest link between what Palantir is building and ICE's activities on the ground yet www.404media.co/elite-the-pa...

If you lose your Samsung Galaxy XR battery... is there any way to replace it ?

I've had friends affected by the Meta layoffs before, but today is different-- I can't believe how many incredible people are suddenly out of work.

Zohran Mamdani, delivering on the promises he made to the people, just saved this woman $36,000 in childcare fees. He has been in office for eight days.

If you’re in NYC and involved with luxury real estate, here’s your chance to get a tour of the best-in-class PCVR wireless photoreal multiplayer holodeck Agile Lens: Immersive Design built with DBOX and PUREBLINK responsible for millions of dollars in presales for Four Seasons Private Residences.

Our very large dog loves the bed we got for our very normal sized cat

I work with some amazing folks. At client’s request, our entire luxury real estate PCVR wireless Holodeck in Austin had to be re-mounted in a rented NYC office space in just a few days, including a completely new tour configuration. Today is the first tours, response is amazing!

It’s still Six Feet Under for me. I remember kind if trudging along in that final season not sure I loved what they were doing with Nate and some of the other characters and assumed the show would just kind of die, but holy cow I’ve never seen a show land a plane so thematically perfectly.

I knew Lumiere in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 sounded familiar— Amelie! youtu.be/E5NKkXPCi80?...

I've both called and written my reps today. (Well, did that for two of three bc Senator Kaine still hasn't turned his office's fucking voicemail back on). You can, too. resist.bot/chat and 5calls.org

WOW!!!!!!!

Post-Christmas I’ve made a deal with my kids to let me sleep in and it’s going fabulously so far

Our all day Christmas Eve Livestream is LIVE, voted number one thing (by my Aunt Connie) to have playing in the background while doing dishes, loading laundry, or preparing presents ! www.youtube.com/live/Fe7X-7F...

TODAY AT 3PM ET IS THE FINAL PERFORMANCE OF CHRISTMAS CAROL VR Every holiday since 2021 we’ve used the show to push live virtual reality performance to new creative & technical limits. And all without a budget! Check out this one-of-a-kind show before it’s gone forever🎄👻👴🥽 xmascarolvr.com

Penultimate show live now!! Look at all those little spirits www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aBk...

Our final shows of Christmas Carol sold out, but this evening’s performance felt rock solid with 30 attendees, so we’ve decided to add 10 public tickets to each of our remaining shows this weekend. Last chance to see the live show then we retire it forever. Hope to see you there ! xmascarolvr.com

Our final shows are completely sold out but we’re debating releasing more tickets depending on what happens during our stress test tomorrow. Join us! Something silly might happen: www.eventbrite.com/e/1978297321...

What an honor to commemorate our final four live shows of A Christmas Carol VR with this excellent write-up from @ianhamilton.net at @uploadvr.com -- we can't wait for everyone to go out with a bang with us! www.uploadvr.com/a-christmas-...

Next show about to start!! www.oculus.com/experiences/... Come haunt Scrooge with us.

Do you love VR? Do you love live theatre? One but not both... yet ? Well now is a great time for a head start on your New Year's resolution to try new things like VR LIVE THEATRE by way of A CHRISTMAS CAROL VR ! @agilelens.bsky.social ever-evolving flagship show is back and better than ever.

A business observation from the past 10 years with Agile Lens — with some exceptions, generally the more well-funded a company or individual, the less likely they are to pay on time. Smaller companies, tighter budgets, family-funded rounds? They pay right away. Thoughts?

Unreal NYC December in the books with 136 registered attendees! Huge thanks to @svanyc.bsky.social for giving us not one but two rooms to accommodate overflow, and of course @epicgames.alt.store.ap.brid.gy for the food and swag.

Yeaaaaaa I’m a little embarrassed how many times I’ve bought two of something important because of my certainty I was going to lose the first one. I even got a passport card as a backup for my passport, then lost both within a day of each other 🤦

For those who saw the show last year the updates this year include: 1) drastically improved audio quality 2) stellar new sound design and music from composer Katherine Beggs 3) higher res livestream with new camera controls 4) full archival recordings of the shows that we’ll be playing back for Xmas

If you have access to a VR headset, I encourage you to experience what these guys are doing with A Christmas Carol. The evolution of this show over the years is remarkable and the performances are top shelf!

Another show now!! Come one come all — don’t even worry about a ticket you can just hop right into the app to enter the live experience: www.oculus.com/experiences/...

Our next A Christmas Carol VR live show is in 30 minutes! Got a Meta Quest? Come haunt Scrooge with us. xmascarolvr.com
