hello and good evening it's 7:77 p.m. my name is gold vision and this is 72 summer camp I hope you had a wonderful weekend I hope all your dreams came true for the weekend I hope you achieved everything that you wanted to and uh you feel rested rejuvenated um we're just going to do a little uh evening meditation as a scheduled Camp activity before I before the evening commences so um welcome thank you for uh thank you for joining before before we get into it I have a couple Camp announcements one it's a new moon New Moon new you uh do what do what you want to do there's uh if you're feeling unstable during the new moon uh focus on your root chakra you can do that and the volcano if you want to take a quick visit it's the red Crystal down there above the meditation lck uh I've got a note here uh deadlock uh do you have an invite I guess I'm just asking for them um because it looks like a cool game and it looks like a game that I won't need to fight anybody in or we'll just choose not to um finally if I got a note here if um during your yoga practice you feel set a need to dance um good says good so hopefully uh hopefully that describes you or some of the things that you're working on in your personal meditation personal meditative experiences I hope um I hope I really do hope you had a good weekend I uh I've been looking at this game it's been showing up in my feeds over and over and over again uh subside is what it's called and I'm pretty excited to jump in I set up a setting so I hope that it works cuz I haven't haven't really tried it out yet um but it looks like a place to meditate I find that VR is a great uh experience situation hardware setup to help meditate because it kind of takes over your vision and it surrounds you and you can have less distractions less material distractions and it's more in a um virtual environment that is conducive to closing your eyes and celebrating experience uh I don't I don't know um how it's going to go I don't know how long this particular experience would be but we've got the new moon portal activated the magic marshmallows on its way Grill it up with our minds allow it to happen allow the U all the magic to come to you and here let me get I'm going to go ahead and and set up the experience real quick feel free to just take in the air just to uh breathe in Air in 7c summer camp doesn't have a a finite amount of meditation points you can put into it you can actually just allow the air to accumulate points forever and it's very powerful experience and it's very useful for gaining meditation points to Spen lator let's see if I got everything I need set up looks like we're looking good looks like everything's set up the way we needed to be just give me a moment I'm loading it up there we go that should do it let's uh let's check it out right here perfect like I said this uh this game's been appearing in my my world many times hopefully it'll just be a quick Breeze through Sim we got a simulation going looks safe perfect yeah this is what it's about yeah this is a uh this is a simulation but it looks pretty wonderful the the only setup was a requirement to place the floor in the world and then make it happen and now we're in the Horizon we're watching water move up and down over my field of view it's very peaceful it's very nice I have a movement sent to teleport but now I'm just floating at the bottom of the water it's too much honestly does look like the waves are hitting a little harder than I thought they would also I'll try not to whip my head around too much so that way everything can stay really smooth there's a question about um Grand offt dto and the grand offt a pacifist and if I'm going to play Grand Theft Auto 6 and I need I do need more details that was urgent I didn't realize I was I'm in duress I realize that it's dangerous around here I have to breathe have to look out I have to be present and celebrate experience after experience as I've explained several times uh I'm an experiential gamer so I'm looking for different experience es and different ideas to celebrate life I don't necessarily want to get stuck in gameplay Loops until they're really established that the games offer a wide variety of experiences because there's plenty of games that are right now uh vying to take up everybody's time all of everybody's time and I think that they should be shared over a lot of different kinds of experiences like being underwater I think I explained it before too when I've tried a lot of games in the past the developers insist on moving from point to point and seeing thing after thing but I've noticed that I like to stay at the beginning as long as possible there's a certain egocentric pursuit of what's next and what else can you get and there's certainly art that's available to pursue and elements of the game world to investigate but I feel like games are so determined to get us to accelerate into the gameplay Loops that we lose track of what we're what's right in front of us this idea I really like this I really feel like I'm submerged like I'm somewhere I feel like I'm a I'm in the ocean it actually feels like a really nice day and the fact that it's so bright in the daytime makes me feel like it is daytime it's not quite I'm trying to get to this inner tube I personally prefer uh teleporting to any other forms of locomotion in VR I think that's the smartest way to do things the best way to reduce motion sickness if you do find yourself experiencing motion sickness uh it's common I haven't quite understood the phenomena yet but I think that my current theory is that it has a lot to do with processor speeds how fast things happen but for the sake of this live stream now that we kind of began things I'll see if there's anything that I need to really investigate like this this buoy can I grab it I'm playing with the the index the valve index it doesn't seem like I need to grab a hold of this buoy it's just here to observe as am I oh and we have rings rings to get through for what purpose I think to learn how to swim look at this though it seems perfect it also seems unfortunate that there is a health bar or some kind of degree of the need to be under be under duress I think I'm assuming that you earen a uh at some point you earn a scuba tank or something oh this a mystery let's get let's get some oxygen let's get some oxygen and enjoy the simulation it's so important to breathe I think that's the primary reason why I do these live streams is just to remind everybody to breathe we're in we're in in interesting times and the world's changing really quickly for a lot of people and there's too many experiences and I'm trying to whittle them down I'm trying to really look at what uh what the best that we have to offer and the best that we can have to experience trying to hunt it all down and I think we're getting there I think we're finding the evolution that we're looking for synchronicities aside simply about about the effort and the positivity that comes with it all right I'll find out what this tape is I'll try to grab it got it information I found one one of four markers it looks like all right there's a a tube look like a concrete tube looks like the fish are aware of my presence and aren't interested in sharing our space it feels really good though it doesn't seem like it's that deep so it's not really trying to introduce a degree of claustrophobia or um whatever underwater claustrophobia it's called I don't know this duck place it on the water that's wonderful it's funny it might just be a tech demo to some people but I think I'd rather spend my time appreciating different environments and taking it in and finding an inner piece by being surrounded by Sharks and Minnows and allowing the GS to come to me this is really just putting me in a very meditative State I hope it I hope you can resonate with that I hope that when that happens you can tell that that's what's happening looks like I'm missing a key for this it's good to know somewhere on the map marker I think the fog really adds a lot to the density of water here we go another search found amidst the jellyfish um if you're just joining my name is gold Vision I'm a peaceful video game player and the gaming counselor here at 7c summer camp you're looking for experiences to share that optimize The Human Experience and make the world a better place so I truly believe if we all spend all of our energy and attention on only the things that we want to see more of then that's all we will get and the world will just naturally synchronize with our desires which we align with each other's desires it's theoretical might just be part of a strange personal dream but the logic sounds sound and that's what I'm interested in sharing my hand there it is hey yep all right three down I don't know how to track where I am underwater I don't know where to go um I've only experienced motion sickness twice in virtual reality since I first tried it in maybe 2015 and the first time was not my fault the first time was the game's fault it was it was set up to just it was it was a tech demo and the only way that it worked is you looked around oh I almost ran out of air while I was telling my story the only way that you moved is you looked and in in whatever Direction you were looking in was the direction you moved and you move faster and faster and faster until you change directions or ran into something and when I ran into something uh it was very it was an awful experience not because anything uh happened in the game but because uh the sudden stop inner ear whatever I had to take a sudden break as well um the other time was in a game called Elite dangerous which has a virtual reality mode which a lot of games have a virtual reality setup an option and there's currently teams of modders who are going through and trying to make certain games possible in VR and in Elite dangerous I put my spaceship into the the jump drive whatever it's called and then I I used the no clipping mode to take a picture of it so my spaceship was going one way and then I was going another way and looking back at it and the whole thing was a real I had to take a break other than that most people recommend don't play oh is this a thing I can get actually just grab it and pop pop it on my back just put it on just bang myself on the head most people recommend no roller coasters or anything that has actual like momentum that's not real because you're just used to not your your body won't reflect the visuals and it'll really throw you off but I I feel like most of my experiences or the ones that I hear about seem to reflect on a frame rate that doesn't match what the player is capable of I I theorize that different people have different rates of perception I think that it's very possible that different people experience different frame rates in reality I don't know if that's scientifically provable but if it's true then you can't lose frames while you're trying to render a virtual world for people who have a high demand for frame rates because they will lose all their energy they will they will collapse in a danger way it looks so good this this just looks this just looks really good area unlocked oh a new area what about the keys what do you think how do I get out I think I just keep going down under the water oh zero Keys okay all right I was just going to do the first level because I thought that that all there was was in the demo but maybe we uh we return to the title and check it out uh there's a question if you can get the bends in this game and I don't know let's find out let's try to let's let's try to suffer um the experience of going too deep and then coming back up also I'm going to create a new profile just so you can see what that's like um to lower the floor sorry just popped out of frame there and then uh stand up straight and then I'm going to try swimming just for fun and see if that's harder or easier I'm 100% it's going to be harder there's a there's a game that you can fly like a bird in VR and you so you flap your wings um wait do I have to swim in here how do I get how do I get to the platform oh left joystick all right um Oh I thought that I completed it all right well the new area unlocked isn't here unless it's the shopping cart I didn't get any oh that's cool to swim gently push yourself using the palms of your hands push yourself with the palms of your hands all right also swim by slowly separating yours facing OPP I'll do that too you can pull yourself using objects in the environment all right okay Sor I don't think we're going to be doing the other the other environment unless I get really proficient here oh it's showing me how to do it does this look absurd I know how to swim this is kind of working I kind of get it pull up push down push down push around yeah this is nice the the bird game that you can fly like a bird and flap your wings I I realized although that was ideal the idea of doing it it's very unnatural for a person to flap their arms it's just not how our muscles are configured so I ended up getting pretty tired and fatigued and just confused and not good I wasn't particularly good at it to start I can't tell if this is blurry or bad uh motion grabbing I don't think we need to grab all the discs again especially because uh swimming seems to be um a more skill-based learning experience that I might need to uh Master on my own it's kind of functional though can you imagine playing a triaa title where you have to swim around i' Do It um a little worried sinking down like this oh there we go up and down it's pretty that's actually very enjoyable I do think one final note about controls in VR and that is that the the game just needs to be fun first I don't think that having a realistic game matters at all and I think that focusing on fun if if the controls are good enough and they let you like scoop your way down it's kind of Pretty Natural for me to do that or pull myself up I yeah that's that's fine it's casual it's comfortable this is nice um okay well I don't I don't need I don't intend to do much more I really just wanted a peaceful underwater experience this game isn't out yet but it will be soon I think it's been on my radar for a long time and now it's on yours uh thank you for letting me share it um to respond to that initial question I really want want to play Grand Theft Auto 6 but I don't know what it's going to be like or how the online's going to work I don't know if you remember but the original online for Grand Theft Auto was not on release it came out later and naturally I don't I don't think you can really play games with the rules that Grand Theft Auto has in the single player as a uh what's that you can't play single player games like that I think I found a gold um non-violently there's too many options there's there's too many necessary violent acts to advance the game you can try to do as little damage as possible but the aspiration here really is to find paths that require no destruction at all so I don't know how possible that'll be but hopefully somebody over there is inspired enough to make it possible to do it online and if it's if it is then I I don't know if my character will continue I'm really debating how that's going to go if Grand Theft Auto online becomes a Grand Theft Auto 6 pivot if your characters can move or fly to the new city I don't know I don't know enough but I'm excited and I'm excited for all games as they progress and adapt and become more immersive and joyful so um I'm going to do something pretty dastardly right now and insist that we um we meditate here at the bottom of the the water without the air we're just going to I'll come back up for air maybe maybe that's what we'll do we'll um do a deep breath in sink to the bottom and try to hold it just for fun all right ready I'm just bouncing up and down all right one more one more of those one more one more deep breath that's wonderful I don't know I feel like I've recently been in some bodies of water and uh this experience is Akin or related to partially similar to visually stimulating like it and uh I recommend you try it especially because this demo is free right now too so if you have the opportunity to it doesn't seem too intimidating it doesn't seem too overwhelming and the real the real approach is this horizon line the the goggle the boundary between above water and Below water I don't really see that too often most games just kind of do like a flat plane and you're either above or below but this one this one's got the motion down and I like it just a second let me uh finish up that looks so good I think the character's floating back up to the surface it's pretty wonderful but anyway also heard crickets the uh the whole time because we were still in Camp but that's the nature of these virtual experiences they're about the idea of sharing sharing unique experiences with other people and there's a lot of opportunity to try a lot of different things instead of being lost or focused on one or have too much setup and tear down if you want to jump in and just do something different for a little bit be brought to a different time or different place that's what these virtual worlds are for that's why we have so many beautiful opportunities and that's why I demand so much from the video game industry the world and Gamers themselves because they're really deciding I feel like we really forget that it's The Gamers on the the other end that decide what games we get more of there's a lot of discussion about how popular things are and the successes of the Publishers but really it's it's up to us individuals to decide what we really want to see so I'm glad that um I'm glad that I got to share this with you and I'm glad that so many new opportunities are opening up for everybody and so many amazing new titles are coming out in the world um I hope that you had a good um underwater experience I hope nobody got motion sickness or the bends as we were worried about um those were the patreon producers thank you so much for helping me uh get through what I need to to get things done and to offset any costs that come from running these systems and developing this game world and thank you for visiting 72 summer camp on this Tuesday evening this new moon I hope that you uh you get some you you start up a new chapter and I hope it's refreshing and wonderful too but that's it for tonight thank you for watching hope you have a wonderful evening I hope you it's not too rainy where you are and as always I ask um you go on to your dreams
