Neal Stephenson coined the term "metaverse" back in the 1990s when it was a science fiction vision for a digital world where we could fully immerse ourselves in a virtual experience. Now we are much closer to turning that vision into a reality. But how do we do it so it can be as equitable as possible for independent creators and developers? We'll talk about the requirements of an open metaverse and the technologies, policies, and content to make it happen in a way that benefits our collective imagination.
We'll talk with Stephenson, author of Snow Crash and cofounder of Lamina1, about the opportunity to make the open metaverse real.
