Fruitful collaboration between Basis and OMI peeps!

Basis shares our philosophy, and is building the steps to hop into the metaverse. Join the conversation where we discuss our common philosophy and vision, next Monday - check either discord server for info and share your views!

Imagine playing 17776 in the #Metaverse. What would it look like? www.sbnation.com/a/17776-foot...

What do the open #metaverse and #cats have in common? The management of semi-feral communities! Not even kidding, this is a comparison one of our members made: indiebio.co.za/community-en...

relevant: xkcd.com/3105/ Y'know, we're gonna need those roller coasters on the train tracks post-apocalypse.

The metaverse is a snowglobe. #meta4Mondays omigroup.github.io/three-omi/ this is a Festival Scene demo

#meta4Monday The metaverse is a bus. Or a train. Inspired by a conversation about the portability between virtual worlds: github.com/omigroup/omi... How far can we push the metaphor?

Discuss: **The #metaverse is #music.** How does this metaphor hold? More fun: how does it fall down? Inspired by an analysis of the Zelda theme. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rm8b... Meta4Mondays is a social experiment getting to know each other's views on the metaverse in a creatively absurd way.

Shaping a truly open and interoperable metaverse is a big goal that we share with the Open Metaverse Interoperability Group. 💎 Join us sowing the seeds of a human-centered and accessible metaverse 💫 @openmetaverse.bsky.social omigroup.org #Interoperability

We've been adding a few entries to our very casual, very organic github wiki: "Initiatives in the larger Metaverse open ecosystem" - shining a light on similar initiatives, growing the open metaverse. github.com/omigroup/omi... Who should be listed here? Do you know of other lists like this?

What is your vision for the metaverse? A fun ice-breaker interview prompt for your chosen LLM. We had a blast discussing our results! There's no right or wrong answers, it's about exploring how we all think differently. Head on over to our Discord for the text file discord.com/channels/887...

Please help a Second Lifer find the peeps!

Godot 4D is out 🤯 www.reddit.com/r/godot/comm...

Hot take: The digital footprint of a property will become part of its property rights in the years to come. This was part of the conversation during yesterday's RP1 demo, showing their spatial fabric coordinate space system. The solar system demo was epic but actually not even the point.

Now to get this into the metaverse, into games, into 3D interactive visualisations! myoceanlearn.marine.copernicus.eu

When we say "Metaverse" what we probably really mean, is this. So cool!

@vworldsmuseum.bsky.social kickstarter live! This is broader than just curating a museum, VWM is also conserving knowledge, contributing to the wider community - great project.

We'd like to find who's out there on bsky involved in the following broad areas, whatcha got? * 3D asset interoperability * Protocol interoperability * Social interoperability

it's your metaverse noob in residence here ... what leading questions are good for a "Metaverse Legacy" conversation? Here's some I have, do these make sense? File format Storage Upstream first? What can we learn from Linux, and its stable effort - Debian? github.com/omigroup/omi...

We're having a casual conversation next week about building the metaverse's legacy. This relates directly to the "File(Data) over app" philosophy. Keen to join? Have ideas to share? Please get in touch! More info: github.com/omigroup/omi...
