bkerensa | jono: have you checked out Oculus Rift? This technology is amazing | 06:04 |
---|---|---|
jono | bkerensa, not tried one yet, I *really* want to :-) | 06:05 |
jono | do you have one? | 06:05 |
bkerensa | jono: no but tbh I am going to get one the tech was very impressive | 06:05 |
bkerensa | jono: mozilla had some at their all hands to show off their VR browser | 06:05 |
bkerensa | they used two quadcopter to fly from bottom of golden gate bridge to the top | 06:05 |
jono | bkerensa, yeah, I saw the FF VR stuff - looks awesome :-) | 06:05 |
bkerensa | so if you jump in the air | 06:06 |
bkerensa | your in the air dropping | 06:06 |
bkerensa | 100% realistic | 06:06 |
bkerensa | jono: samsung just came out with a rift thats only $199 so I think thats going to be on my christmas list ;) | 06:06 |
jono | bkerensa, I am waiting for the PS4 headset :-) | 06:07 |
jono | I am really excite for VR | 06:08 |
jono | I think it will be awesome for games, but I am really looking forward to it's application in the philanthropic space | 06:08 |
jono | e.g. training doctors and crisis management workers | 06:08 |
bkerensa | jono: that would be pretty damn cool | 06:08 |
bkerensa | jono: my cousin does biologist research in the marsh in SF Bay | 06:08 |
jono | no kidding | 06:08 |
jono | cool :-) | 06:08 |
bkerensa | jono: I just told her she should film the marsh and convert it to VR | 06:08 |
bkerensa | so people can explore her doctorate research | 06:09 |
jono | yeah, will be cool seeing all the additive tech that comes out of it - different scanners, modeling and more | 06:09 |
jono | I am just excited that the VR momentum is finally moving | 06:09 |
bkerensa | yeah | 06:09 |
jono | with Sony, Samsung, Oculus and others | 06:09 |
bkerensa | very innovative times we are in | 06:09 |
jono | so I was stoked to see the Mozilla work :-) | 06:09 |
jono | no kidding | 06:09 |
jono | the future is going to be amazing :-) | 06:09 |
bkerensa | jono: so I have to ask... How did you meet Seth Green? | 06:11 |
bkerensa | :) | 06:11 |
jono | bkerensa, I was introduced to him via Peter Diamandis | 06:11 |
bkerensa | ah cool | 06:11 |
jono | he loves XPRIZE | 06:11 |
jono | and he was keen to help with Global Learning | 06:11 |
jono | so I asked him if I could come and interview him | 06:11 |
jono | which he was cool to do | 06:11 |
bkerensa | Thats awesome | 06:11 |
jono | so we shot it at the Robot Chicken studio | 06:12 |
jono | in this awesome arcade room they have | 06:12 |
bkerensa | very cool | 06:12 |
jono | I was also going to interview the Mythbusters, but the timing didn't quite work out | 06:12 |
bkerensa | aww | 06:12 |
bkerensa | that would be cool | 06:12 |
jono | it was weird interviewing Seth | 06:12 |
jono | as I had never interviewed that kind of celeb before | 06:12 |
bkerensa | did he have a PR or Agent there to say "don't answer that" | 06:13 |
jono | I have interviewed famous software people, but not, y'know, really famous people :-) | 06:13 |
jono | no, it was a totally open book | 06:13 |
bkerensa | thats legit | 06:13 |
jono | his assistant just coordinated logistics with our film crew | 06:13 |
jono | yeah, Seth very explicitly said, anything is cool | 06:13 |
bkerensa | jono: is the interview on the web? | 06:14 |
jono | in the 10 mins before we started all we talked about was ninja turtles :-) | 06:14 |
jono | bkerensa, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jgdm-O7g7dM is the cut version | 06:14 |
jono | which has some awkward cuts | 06:14 |
jono | there is a longer uncut version which I am going to release | 06:14 |
bkerensa | nice | 06:15 |
bkerensa | jono: I got to meet Macklemore & Ryan Lewis last Friday | 06:15 |
bkerensa | :) | 06:15 |
bkerensa | Mozilla hired them for our all hands party | 06:15 |
jono | bkerensa, yeah, I saw that | 06:16 |
jono | that is neat :-) | 06:16 |
jono | did you get to touch his awesome coat? | 06:16 |
jono | :-) | 06:16 |
bkerensa | I did not | 06:16 |
bkerensa | we shook hands | 06:16 |
jono | Macklemore seems like a genuinely top bloke | 06:16 |
bkerensa | and one of his dancers kicked my johnnie walker on me | 06:16 |
jono | I have seen some interviews with him | 06:16 |
bkerensa | so after his set they actually talked to me | 06:16 |
jono | oh shucks | 06:16 |
bkerensa | :d | 06:16 |
jono | that sucks | 06:16 |
jono | nice! | 06:16 |
bkerensa | well | 06:16 |
jono | that is cool they played the Moz party | 06:17 |
jono | they are a pretty big deal right now | 06:17 |
bkerensa | yeah they picked up four grammys this year apparently | 06:17 |
jono | wow | 06:17 |
bkerensa | I like their intro though | 06:17 |
bkerensa | they talked about the country being in turmoil | 06:17 |
bkerensa | it wasn't just about performing | 06:17 |
jono | right | 06:17 |
jono | that is cool, so long as it doesn't turn into full Rage Against The Machine lectures between songs :-) | 06:18 |
bkerensa | heh | 06:18 |
jono | I love RATM but his ranting gets a bit old :-) | 06:18 |
jono | that's one thing I always suck at when I played with Severed Fifth, not much meaningful between song banter | 06:18 |
jono | just bad English puns | 06:18 |
bkerensa | jono: are you going to start playing again? | 06:19 |
jono | fortunately, our audiences were mostly friends :-) | 06:19 |
jono | bkerensa, I'd like too, but I just don't have time right now | 06:19 |
jono | I have actually written and recorded most of an album | 06:19 |
jono | I just need to lay down the vocals and mix it | 06:19 |
jono | I just have loads to do at work | 06:19 |
jono | bkerensa, are you doing SCALE in Feb? | 06:19 |
bkerensa | jono: Yeah I plan to be there and were talking about having a Webmaker Lab for kids in addition to our booth | 06:20 |
jono | sweet | 06:20 |
bkerensa | but probably wont be promoting Firefox OS this year... instead hoping to show off Dev Edition of Firefox | 06:20 |
jono | will be fun to catch up | 06:20 |
jono | ahhh nice | 06:21 |
jono | yeah, lots of new toys going into FF it seems | 06:21 |
jono | that IDE in a browser stuff is the bomb | 06:21 |
bkerensa | Yeah its pretty exciting stuff... I love the Responsive View tool | 06:22 |
* bkerensa better head to sleep | 06:22 | |
