Happy Holidays from the Music Tectonics Podcast! Join the podcast team as we look back to one of our favorite interviews from the past year with Lee Kebler, a visionary at the crossroads of music, spatial computing, and the metaverse. He takes us on a journey from his days as a touring DJ to his current role as a tech trailblazer. In our latest episode, we dance through the virtual landscape discussing the impact of the Apple Vision Pro headset and dissect the notion that the metaverse, far from being a buzzword, is shaping into a realm of boundless connectivity for artists and tech enthusiasts alike.
Then, we turn into the digital domain where virtual reality (VR) and gaming intertwine. Lee narrates his experience of bringing the Olympics to VR and the challenges met along the way, including a global pandemic. We also examine the potential of skeletal tracking and AI in sports broadcasting.
Our conversation with Lee doesn't shy away from the tough questions, like whether the metaverse is merely undergoing a rebrand or truly evolving. We address Meta's strategic moves in VR, including the pivotal shift from PC to mobile VR and the industry's initial hesitance to embrace such change. The beat goes on with a chat about the influence of Meta's Vision Pro headset on the music scene and the broader implications for the technology's acceptance.
