this is problematic even if you ignore the obvious hurdle of having to wear overheavy ski goggles.

Apple supposedly slashed production for their 3k5 USD ski goggles, a sign they may soon be joining the long list at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_virtual_reality_headsets of attempts that all don't solve the key thing: adding 1kg of ski goggles to your head and shove it between yourself and the world is only acceptable in a very limited set of contexts and uses, and not a mainstream thing.

Ben Thompson on Apple Vision. esp better explains the tech involved. Also seems to address my own reservations on the potential of VR and VR headsets. read/explore

• = Maurice Benayoun
• describes his extensive history of cognitive science infused art installations:
• cognitive art,
• VR art,
• AR art and
• art infused by AI (long before the AI artbots became trendy)

• title = What can cognitive science bring to art and museums?

• Comment = Maurice Benayoun has applied cognitive science, VR and AR too many at installations throughout his life.

Such an effort will require a supporting worldwide digital ecosystem. In the recent past, major evolutionary transitions (MET) (Robin et al, 2021) of our species have been triggered by radical new information systems such as spoken language, and then inscribed language. Something akin to a Major Competitive Transitions (MCT) may be required to accompany a radical transition to a good anthropocene.

If large data is ingested into a public Indyweb, because Indyweb is naturally a graph database, a salience landscape can be constructed of the hyperthreat and data visualized in its multiple dimensions and scales.

Metaphorically, it can manifest as a hydra with multiple tentacles reach out to multiple scales and dimensions. VR and AR technology can be used to expose the hyperobject and its progression.

The proper hyperthreat is not climate change alone, although that is the most time sensitive dimension of it, but rather the totality of all blowbacks of human progress...the aggregate of all progress traps that have been allowed to grow, through a myopic prioritization of profit over global wellbeing due to the invisibility of the hyperobject, from molehills into mountains.
