5. “But listen – a movie that gives one sight and sound.
Suppose now I add taste, smell, even touch, if your interest is
taken by the story. Suppose I make it so that you are in the
story, you speak to the shadows, and the shadows reply, and
instead of being on a screen, the story is all about you, and
you are in it. Would that be to make real a dream?”
Stanley G Weinbaum, Pygmalion’s Spectacles (1935)

7. KEY TAKEAWAY
“By 2020, 50% of the Global 2000 will see the

9. The Seven Steps to Successful Persona Creation
Virtual Reality vs. Augmented Reality
Virtual Reality
“The computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or
environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical
way by a person using special electronic equipment, such as a helmet
with a screen inside or gloves fitted with sensors.”
Augmented Reality
“A technology that superimposes a computer-generated image on a
user's view of the real world, thus providing a composite view.”

34. KEY TAKEAWAY
““Good VR has a proposition that is unique to VR.
It sounds really obvious, but it’s key. It has to be
better in VR, or only in VR. A lot of media
companies have a tendency to take what they
have and put it in VR. That might be a good bridge,
but it’s not the ultimate destination for VR.”
Greg Ivanov, Google
