Little does the audience he had the entire tedtalk written out in his headset

I am a video game environment artist and I bought my first VR headset just over a year ago.

I bought it for my Dads 80th birthday. I wanted to remake a cabin my family went to every Christmas, a cabin that no longer exists. All the details would be there, dust floating through God rays, a TV so full of static that the picture was barely visible and colored metal drinking cups that no longer were colored after my brother washed them in the washing machine, stealing their color.

The day came when Dad put the headset on and he was transported back in time, with all the details of the cabin he remembered, and then the memories came flooding back.. but this time there was a huge birthday cake on the kitchen table and finally a HAPPY BIRTHDAY fireworks display that lit up the entire sky. For a man who always thought games were a waste of time he loved it. haha.

VR is an extremely powerful tool that I love and I cant wait to see how it evolves.

This man ended his Ted Talk with a meme and I don't think anyone in the audience realized it

This would be a completely different talk if he'd been playing vrchat.

I remember, the first YouTube video I watched from this guy was him explaining his after thought of his experiment. I just watched it all over again but in a Ted talk.

100 years from now, the Ted Talk will be "What I learned from spending a week in real life."
