What is the metaverse today and what will the metaverse be in a couple of years: Peggy and Brian Burton, professor of digital entertainment technology, Abilene Christian University, discuss. He says today that looks like going into Second Life, which isn’t truly metaverse, but it encapsulates some of the concepts we will see in the metaverse as it comes to fruition.

They also discuss:

  • The history of edutainment and a reemergence in that area today.
  • Embodied cognition and how we believe we are in that environment.
  • If catfishing will be a concern in the metaverse—and how NFT and blockchain can help.
