During this time, we heard about what a wonderful experience it would be to travel through imaginary places and interact with the world at hand. But what I never saw coming was how I would love to be distracted, cool technology could be my new favorite way to leave my house in the midst of a global epidemic.
In relation to this writing, New York has the highest number of people found receiving covid-19 at 131,830, with a death toll of 4,758 and up. The hospital near me has one has started loading the refrigerator trucks to keep corpses, and sirens running quickly to my apartment. I'm fine now, but I'm lying when I say that all this is impossible for me. I often wonder what kind of misery we will have after this is over, in the same way that older relatives have adopted habits that we may find strange based on their life experiences.
Like many people, I try to stay positive. A healthy amount of Animal Crossing
So, like in the '90s anime, I strapped my VR headset on, unplugged the removable mic from my gaming head, and grabbed my touch controllers and turned off the others. VR Chat, which seems to have been overwhelming for users since I last looked at it months ago. I heard conversations that came from mainstream ideas Eternal Judgment to friends making jokes together as they show off their favorite avatar. A small crowd gathered two avatars who were in the same room and interacting with each other. I looked away, keeping my distance. I sent calls around the world looking for similar human interaction, even though negotiations took place between the Master Chief and the long 4 character.
At one point, I looked up at the pull of a big boat heading towards the beautiful city during the golden hour. For a moment, I completely forgot that I was actually sitting at my desk in Brooklyn. The thing that brought me back to Earth was the siren that passed through my apartment. But just for a moment, it reminded me of my favorite feeling when I arrived in new places, such as the quiet road in Seoul, Rome in the fall, or the tree-lined streets of Barcelona. I was taken back on my last trip to Tokyo, where I wandered alone and lost some parts of the city before meeting my friend who was going to get coffee.
Next, I downloaded Large screen, is an app that allows people to view things together in a variety of extremely diverse settings such as team balloons or large screens with 200 screens. Another room recently encouraged people to come talk to themselves. When I came in, one boy worried about his parents smoking, even though he repeatedly asked them to stop. One woman began talking about her smoking habit and how much the epidemic was trying to stop.
I went into another room with the meaning of "close the dance." While loading into the room, there were several people dancing to Lady Gaga as the 90-year-old media show shot through all the cylinders on the big screen. One person flew into every space and the highest of the five people around them, including me. I closed my eyes, started to walk out of my seat, and before I knew it, I was dancing with everyone. We all just accepted how stupid it was all. Those of us who have a god laughed and danced our hearts.
This brought me back to my recent trip to Amsterdam, where my brother, colleagues and I visited a dance club that used to be a school. No calls were allowed, so it forced everyone to attend. We wandered from room to room and danced among strangers for hours. Everyone was invited to be as stupid as they wanted or to be as colorful as possible, partially because everyone probably knew they wouldn't be seen as a meme on Twitter. It was hard to see four feet in front of me, but I knew we all just wanted to have a good time. The outside world has just disappeared for a few hours. My recollection almost sounds like an isometric view of any room we were in, with a dark space all around it.
Status on Large screen it was totally ridiculous, and it also made me forget, just for a moment, the world that waited for me when I pulled out my headset and my eyes were back on my apartment. It was heartening to see strangers interacting with each other and sharing their fears, and being reminded of better times. I look forward to the future, when we emerge from these clouds and we can touch where we want again. Things may look bad right now, but at least I have something to look forward to. In the meantime, VR is an inspiring way to get fresh air.
