Greetings from California! I’m writing this letter between Silicon Valley (East Palo Alto, to be exact) and Los Angeles because I’m moving to attend AWE! My days in the Valley have been nice, and I’ve spent some time with some old friends and made some new ones. I also visited the Computer History Museum, and […]
Today I’m traveling to the US to attend AWE, so I was hoping that the past week would be a bit boring, so I did not have to write a long post while traveling, but actually, the XR ecosystem decided not to help me because there are many things to talk about. There’s been no […]
I’m back in Italy for a few days. The trip to Helsinki was amazing and now I can spend some days eating pasta before I take the plane to the US to attend AWE! I will stay a few days in the Valley and a few days in LA… in case you want to meet […]
Hello from Helsinki, Finland! The city is different from how I found it in December: there is no snow, but there is a bright sun that sunsets late evening. It’s very beautiful, but in a different way. As usual, I will keep you posted about my adventures here! This week in XR has not been mindblowing, […]
I have a bit of nausea when writing this roundup because I was playing around with passthrough and created an app that makes you feel like you’re drunk, high, or something like that. I think it’s cool, but my stomach doesn’t share my same enthusiasm… Anyway, I’ll tell you more about it in the upcoming […]

This week has been quite cool for me. One of my biggest highlights has been that my article about Social AR has been featured in the famous New World Notes blog that I usually read… I’ve felt very honored about this! And after a little celebration with you, my amazing readers, it is time for me […]
This summary comes a bit later than usual because I’ve been busy writing a very long post to celebrate my ten years in XR! It’s incredible to have been here for such a long time… and to have written more than 350 of these roundups of news. I hope in these 10 years to have […]
You may wonder why this newsletter episode is coming a bit later than usual. Well, it’s easy to say: Yesterday I was going to start writing this newsletter when Meta dropped the bomb about opening up its operating system and I was like “WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT”. After a few minutes of shock, I thought “I HAVE ABSOLUTELY […]
These days I’ll start organizing my trip to the US to be a speaker at AWE in June… in case you want to meet me there, feel free to reach out. The sooner I know how many people would like to meet me, the better I’ll organize my trip… After this personal announcement, let’s have a […]
It’s not been an exciting week for the XR industry, but still, the release of Spatial Personas has created a new little hype around the Apple Vision Pro, putting even more pressure on Meta, which soon will make its move with the new Quest 3 S/Lite.
