When we can look through technology, rather than down at our phones & monitors, we will be able to see each other in a new light. This is the whole point of what is to come, a clear vision of the future.
This creation of this idea started two years ago, while sitting in my sauna & looking at the door in front of me. At this moment I had an epiphany, a vision of interactive experience that we can take anywhere in the world, I saw myself in three locations. This out of body experience allowed me to perceive myself physically, digitally and consciously interconnected.
The resulting idea is a place to exist alongside the real world & simultaneously be connected inside the internet with the goal of seeking the connectivity of your peers, share memes & growing a collective interest in Augmented Reality. Lets call this environment the WorkPlay.Space. Where we can actively work in virtual locations & while also interacting with players that exist inside an Augmented Reality video game.

The use cases are profound, branching innovation into every single person who is able to experience it. Giving us the ability to design in Augmented Reality environments could really transform our lives. So credit given where credit is due, all the technology we have to today is thanks to the dedication of engineers & mathematicians that seek to create the vehicles of innovation. Yet try to imagine developing CAD drawings, (computer aided design) inside Augmented Reality? The whole process would be natural, the designed with organic fluidity of our hands.
Digital learning could be completely revolutionized, as human beings learn through mimicry. Memetics simply put, is the ability to copy the behavior of another in order to learn the process. I believe that Augmented Reality is the gateway to our collective consciousness to be project into the environment around us.

Laying down the framework of augmented reality worlds, requires several things beyond the just Augmented Reality hardware. Connectivity through P2P wireless networking with the combination of WiFi and LiFi, will allow a high bandwidth direct LAN pathways between AR glasses.
The power of cryptography will grant us the ability host our individual “self sovereign identity” on the blockchain. This will be the key to unlocking distributed AR social networks inside these virtual worlds. Hosting this data storage with decentralized nodes opens the gateway of new technological paradigms of social operating systems.
If you want to grow a giant redwood, you need to make sure the seeds are ok, nurture the sapling, and work out what might potentially stop it from growing all the way along. Anything that breaks it at any point stops that growth.”
