A Podcast list for VR, AR, and Spatial Computing
I used to listen to quite a few podcasts related to VR, but many of them quietly dropped off over the years (looking at you, RevVR). Last week on Threads I asked for a list of podcast recommendations related to XR tech. I’ve gotten a few suggestions so far, so I’ll list them below. I’ll…

Superliminal (PS4)
I’ve had this in my PS4 library for a while now and finally made some time to play it. Interesting puzzles, weird story, and an art style that I appreciate. This game is definitely my jam. Here are a few of my favorite photos and videos from the game.
