Julian Dibbell contacted me!
OK. I emailed him first, pleading for his assistance with Virtuall Real, but regardless of my methods, he did respond, and he has agreed to be taped for the project. This is AWESOME! Everyone in the industry is all ga-ga about Stephenson’s Snow Crash, but I think Dibbell’s Play Money is spot on the best overall assessment of what’s happening in the industry right now.
Read it. It’s a great primer about the nuttiness that is the current Wild West of Virtual Worlds.
Now I need to get to Chicago.
