First day of the conference


It took to the first session for me to realise I need to be here. The MacArthur institute talk was a - 'yes this is what I've been saying' moment. We are in a time that requires us to work towards new paradigm shifts. From - education to learning - consumption to participation - individual to social - direct transfer to imagination.

First day in the city

Met up with some of the SL top dogs tonight - the guys from rivers run red, the maker of the famous bubblegum machine and ice skates, the owner of the Azure islands and more...
