Short hands-on at SXSW: Vive XR Elite, HYPERVSN… the CIA… and more!

Short hands-on at SXSW: Vive XR Elite, HYPERVSN… the CIA… and more!

Today I want to tell you about some very short hands-on sessions I had during my attendance at the SXSW festival. They were all very interesting experiences, but given the very short time I had with these devices, what I’m going to write can’t be considered a real review, but more some kind of first […]

The time to harvest for us VR people is now

The time to harvest for us VR people is now

A few weeks ago, I was discussing with a colleague of mine that I hadn’t seen for months, and while we were updating ourselves about each other’s lives, we started talking about our VR careers. We both are in a better situation than a few years ago, so at a certain point, he told me […]

Now that I’m back in Italy, it’s time that I tell you about some experiences I have tried at SXSW. I’ve already told you how beautiful it was attending SXSW and meeting amazing people like Tony Parisi (that you can see in the header image), and I’ve already written a summary of the keynote by […]

The XR Week Peek (2021.11.29): Black Friday deals, investments in Niantic, and more!

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope that you all American friends have celebrated it with your families and have eaten a lot of turkeys (or whatever vegan alternative), enjoying good times with your peers. If you were wondering, we in Italy do not celebrate Thanksgiving, but I would love one year to participate in its celebration hosted […]

The XR Week Peek (2021.09.20): Quest 2 Pro leaks, Xiaomi smartglasses, Half Dive headset, and more!

This one is the last AR/VR news roundup for this summer! Here in Turin, the sun is shining, but the temperature is getting colder, and autumn is coming too fast. I think I’ll miss the joys of summer (and all the trophies that Italy has won), but at least I’ll be able to enjoy again […]

Goliath Review: a deep experience about psychosis

At the latest Venice VR Expanded, one of the experiences all the magazines are talking about is Goliath by ANAGRAM, which is narrated by the beautiful voice of Tilda Swinton.

Oculus Quest 2 Free Silicone Cover Review

Yesterday I have finally received at home the free Silicone Cover that we owners of an Oculus Quest 2 are entitled to receive because of the skin irritation that the Quest 2 gasket was giving to a limited number of people. And as with everything that happens to me, I thought it could have been […]
