During the talk of the National Film Board of Canada at View Conference 2018, the speakers Eloi Champagne and Martin Viau talked about one of the experiences they have developed, called Museum of Symmetry, that was like a cartoon in virtual reality. I haven’t given much credit to that experience, and in fact, I’ve just […]
Do you know Google Spotlight Stories? If not, well, you should. It is a small R&D lab on creative projects hosted by Google that is focused on creating original VR storytelling experiences.

I’m very happy to talk about a very important event that will take place very soon in my city of Turin (Italy): the VIEW Conference.
When in 2015 I had my first Samsung Gear VR, I was amazed: finally, I could enjoy high-quality tether-less virtual reality. Yes, it was a 3 DOF toy, so I couldn’t move my head in games, but it was the first time I tried a sensation of freedom in VR. And it was great also […]
Who said that the life of developers is boring? I’ve spent the last Saturday night in a real discotheque in Milan to make people try our virtual reality experience Beat Reality and I really had tons of fun.
