Quick Follow Up to “Experiments in AR!”
Late last year I posted about some fun stuff I was playing with in AR via 8thWall and, around that time, Niantic announced they were closing the 8thWall platform but promised to open source it.

A Big Adventure

Thanks Black Ink Presents and specifically Alek Deva for having me along for the bumpy sleigh ride again. This was the 10th anniversary of doing this show at the Bowl and hoooo…

Experiments in AR!
I’ve been poking around 8thWall to see how it all works. The whole dev environment is web based which is great for picking up and working anywhere on almost any device. I made this foolish cap just to get a sense of what’s what (it will ask for your camera because it uses your head):…
