Warner Music Records, in partnership with AmazeVR, are launching an incredible experiment - transferring concerts of their favorite artists to a virtual reality space! Full immersion in the world of music and a completely different level of interaction with artists.
Everything will start with hybrid releases of VR x Theater, and then streaming VR music channels will open. If the teams succeed, we will connect the concert venues to our meta-reality. We are looking forward to it!
And finally, the XR History Museum opened on the site of the conference center! Here are completely rare devices from the distant past of the XR.
For example, the original Oculus prototypes courtesy of Palmer Lucky, a replica of the first Sensorama multi-touch theater from 1961, and the first ever Ivan Sutherland head-up display from 1968.
