VR has the potential to be the world's biggest introspection platform and it's the main reason I love it so much 🧠💕 VR apps can be designed to be extensions of people's minds, turning them into physical things they can interact with, touch and explore. 🥽🗺️

Impressed with support for tech growth. Last year there were over 10,000 jobs created in the VR/AR space in BC. They also still have interactive digital tax credits. Way to go @BruceRalston and the BC Government! @tanya_fir and @YourAlberta, please consider this sector? #VRARAGS
