August Update

Happy summer everyone,

Since the last update, we’ve had our monthly member meetings with new faces and more volunteers. We may even have someone else soon to help flesh out this newsletter beyond my meager monthly updates.

Thanks for reading XR Guild Newsletter! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

TL;DR we are moving into the phase, now that we established ourselves publicly and have some able members, where we need to get more of our great work out into the world. We have some volunteers to help figure out audio/visual outreach (podcast, etc…), on-line learning library, live 3D presence (Hubs, etc..) and more. Anyone who has time to contribute, please contact avi@xrguild.org

I’m personally spending most of time tweaking the Guild website to add nominations for our (so far) 3 publications: “100 Original Voices in XR #2”, “25 Original Originals” and a new concept called “MUM” that’s meant to honor all the people working in secret, without disclosing their work. The artwork for that will take some time to get right. Nominate folks at https://nominate.xrguild.org . I’m about to update the UX on that too.

Next step: we need a review committee to pick the final selectees for publication. If interested, LMK too.

We also need a small committee to focus on fundraising and planning our annual meeting in November. We think it’s Nov 9th in SF as of now, but will update. For fundraising, we want to start applying for grants and finding one or two benefactors who can fund our outreach programs (meetups, mentoring, and content creation). As always, anything you can contribute will help. Remember, we don’t currently ask for any membership dues and would like to keep it that way. https://donate.xrguild.org

Here are your full July meeting notes and video recordings. Thanks to everyone who could join. Next meeting is August 18th at 9am Pacific Time. Zoom link on request.

Best wishes to everyone and we hope to see you sometime soon.

Avi
