Nerd Nite Tokyo #62: Virtu(al)osity

Описание: Nerd Nite Tokyo #62: Virtu(al)osity

October 28, 2024

We apologize for the video/audio desync!

Our first speaker is Yutaka Kikugawa, founder of El Sistema Japan:

Music is not only a source of joy and inspiration; it can also ignite intrinsic motivation and empower communities. Our 12 years of experience, from post-tsunami reconstruction to inclusive education, demonstrate how music can spark diverse social actions and drive positive change.

Then, JAXA astrophysicist, science communicator, and Nerd Nite favorite Elizabeth Tasker shows us how she and the global community “The Future of Meetings” are exploring the possibilities of virtual reality:

You can design a lecture hall for sharing ideas, an exhibition space with demonstrations of full-scale animated models of scientific or engineering equipment, select landing sites for a space mission by standing on another planet, or cut that deal on a golf course in Captain Nemo’s submarine (complete with giant squid).
