Honoured - Top 12 Leading FemAle voices in London Tech!

3/9/2023

 
Honoured to be named one of the Top 12 leading female voices in London tech by Ironhack UK! 

Happy International Womens Day!

3/8/2023

 
As we celebrate women today, I am thrilled to share this interview with a personal hero of mine in the VR / tech space - "The Godmother of Virtual Reality" and the world's leading pioneer in Immersive Journalism - Nonny de la Peña, PhD!

Dr. Nonny de la Peña creates stories that you remember with your entire body, not just your mind. Her innovative, high impact, immersive journalism puts us in the middle of something we might normally see on the news, giving us presence and making you a participant rather than just a passive viewer. Tackling some of the most vital issue of our time, from climate change, the refugee crisis, and hunger; to police brutality, prison reform, abortion, and domestic violence, her work doesn't just tell stories - it allows us to live them.  

In a huge step forward to making this technology more accessible and available, Emblematic Group have just launched the beta of REACH.Love, the first web platform for creating, remixing, and sharing volumetric VR. It allows anyone to make immersive volumetric VR from their own home using real people and places. A simple drag-and-drop interface lets users place themselves into high-res 3D environments, and then share the results via a simple web link.

Watch the whole interview on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts!

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY! 🙌 🙏🏼 🎉

Future of Social Media - Out Now!

1/10/2023

 
Social media today is not what we originally signed up for, and if you're like me, you're getting itchy for something better...

This interview really underlines the powerful potential the metaverse has to replace the inauthentic, polarising, hyper-normalised, ad-based social media structures we accept today with something that legitimately generates, nurtures, and fosters human connection in a way we haven't yet achieved / experienced in the digital age.

Check out what Daren Tsui, the CEO of one of TIME's 'Most Influential Companies' Together Labs, has to say on the future of social media, dating, 'situationships', the science of friendship, and the significant opportunity we have right now to redefine communication and connection.

AV Week Appearance

12/19/2022

 
Invasive PrivacyIt’s the very last regular show of AVWeek for 2022, but if Bradford Benn is hosting than it’s anything but regular. Either way, we are committed to bringing you the latest news in the commercial side of the AV industry. Joining Bradford this week is Futurist and host of XR Star Amelia Kallman, Kirkegaard Partner & Principal of Integrated Systems Design Bren Walker and AV Solutions Engineer Chrissy Sara.
Occupancy monitors aren’t a new thing, but this article has them in a new light: Students rebel against heat sensing crotch monitor surveillance devices. Yes, you are reading that title right. Northern University students found these devices in off all places the Cybersecurity & Privacy Institute. After finding the sensors, the students removed them and have made something of an art piece out of them. We discuss the way that surveillance has had an impact on AV.
Amazon Studios has opened up a new virtual production stage, along with a new department solely based on virtual productions. This is similar technology to the ones used for Disney shows like The Mandalorian, instead of traditional green screens. For AV, it’s very important since those walls are giant LED screens to display that technology. We look at the future of broadcasting and productions.
Host: Bradford Benn
Guests:
  • Amelia Kallman – Amelia on Linkedin
  • Bren Walker – Kirkegaard
  • Guest3 – Chrissy on Linkedin

Such great insights from Nischal Belthan on the future of NFTs and crypto - from what we can expect in 2023, and beyond! As he says, "The genie is out of the bottle," and blockchain technology is turning everything we think we know about finance and ownership on its head, offering us the potential to re-evaluate traditional structures and create a more equitable global society.
