Hey everyone, nickp here from mattermost. My holochain projects are at https://github.com/vanarchist. Haven’t had much time to work on stuff lately due to starting a new job at Cornell and moving, etc. If anyone is interested in forming a Cornell or Ithaca Holochain group, let me know. Should be getting back into things shortly.

Hi Peeps,
I first discovered Holochain around March 2018 about the time or just before the indiegogo campaign and was blown away with what I found, I knew then that my nextgen game Our World would be built on this tech. I actually already had visions of the architecture it would be built on many years earlier, it would be a de-centralised distributed network where resources could be shared between the nodes so the nodes that were less powerful could use the spare resources of more powerful nodes so as you can see Holochain was a perfect fit!
I later read the book Ready Player One and again was blown away by how close the OASIS featured in it was to Our World, which is why I always say that it is the closest thing to what I envision to give people an idea of what Our World is… 
It is waaaaaaaaaaaay more than just a game, it is a next-gen social network, operating system, ecosystem, asset store, platform, virtual e-commerce and sooooo much more, it really has never been done before and is light years ahead of everything else, I am a visionary and I see a looooooooooong way into the future!
When I first started getting visions for this over 7 years ago the hardware didn’t exist to build it but now it is getting closer…
Our World is an exciting immersive next generation 3D XR/IR (Infinite Reality) educational game/platform/social network/ecosystem teaching people on how to look after themselves, each other and the planet using the latest cutting-edge technology. It teaches people the importance of real-life face to face connections with human beings and encourages them to get out into nature using Augmented Reality similar to Pokémon Go but on a much more evolved scale. This is our flagship product and is our top priority due to the massive positive impact it will make upon the world…
It is the XR/IR Gamification layer of the new interplanetary operation system, which is being built by the elite technical wizards stationed around the world. This will one day replace the current tech giants such as Google, FaceBook, etc and act as the technical layer of the New Earth, which is birthing now. It is a 5th dimensional and ascension training platform, teaching people vital life lessons as well as acting as a real-time simulation of the real world.
Our World is like a XR Unified Interface into all of these hApps (this is the Operating System part of it), it’s a bit like the XR UI front-end to Holochain where you can view and launch any apps from inside it but they integrate much more deeper than that through the OASIS API/Profile/Avatar/Karma system where they all share the central avatar/profile and can all add/subtract the profiles/avatars karma.

As part of this work we have developed a .NET client to talk to holochain called HoloNET, which also enabled Holochain to talk to Unity (what Our World is written in). HoloNET & HoloUnity have been gifted forward to this wonderful community, in the hope it will attract the much needed devs/resources we need for this vital project for humanity…
We are looking for devs to help so if this interests you, we would 
to hear from you…
We also plan to develop a .NET HDK soon and are also looking for help with this too…
Look forward to seeing you all soon…
Much love, light & hope,
David.

is there a white paper for Holo-Rea?
Thanks for asking, @WaelAura . Maybe too much to read, but no whitepaper as such. We’re working on a framework for economic networks that any other Holochain project can use and build on, and by doing so, interact economically with other projects.
- Here’s how the project was introduced to Holochain
- Here’s the vocabulary we are using, which should also tell you more about the goals: https://valueflo.ws/ - and also provide a bunch of examples.
@lynnfoster is very close to finishing a new release of the vocabulary. @pospi has some other wonderful intro material. If he doesn’t see this, I’ll find and post some of it.
Please ask questions. Maybe in the HoloREA forum? Or here, or send me a PM.

Tom here from Australia, I feel like this forum has come at the perfect time.
I’ve been wondering how best to propose new projects to the community but suffer from perfectionism.
I feel this forum is the perfect way to suggest ideas and help other’s refine ideas where they don’t have to be perfect from day one.
I’m really looking forward to connecting with you all and in the process building trust generating circles with our new holochain tools and empowering each other to heal the world the way they see they need to.

Hello! Dennis here from Australia 
I help organise the local Holochain Byron Bay Meetups with @NickHaslem and @anastasia, and also enjoy working day to day on various platform and technology design/development projects both locally and internationally.
I look forward to seeing where we can take this forum!

Hi from the East of England countryside!
I’m 47 & been hacking since my BBC ‘B’ computer days when I was 9. I’ve been following Holochain for a while now as I believe it is a step in the right direction but didn’t have a project in mind until I had to recover from a severe B12 deficiency and discovered the mess we’re in due to big pharma’s push for patented meds vs the reality that a cheap, simple fix is available and up to a third of alzheimers could just be B12 issues.
On the flip side most the help is through online forums which are great however each seems to have stong opinions so also end up being an issue if you have a differing opinion (or “open mind” as I like to refer to it as!). So my thinking is the nature of the holochain network means we can connect via symptoms and choose who we want to listen to and who we don’t. It seems writing something like a white paper would be a way forward, I guess that’s why I joined up here because I don’t know next steps and through my B12 issues and discovering ADHD makes sense as to why I find it hard to focus long enough to do more than hacking
Holochain-based also means it should be hard to censor as there’s a lot of business in keeping people ill, not much profit in a healthy, intelligent population eh…
Right, that’s enough waffle… oh, I’m also a big fan of Pierre Levy’s IEML - markup language for collective intelligence, I think it would work well with holochain, check it out.

Hi, I’m Anita from SW Michigan. I learned about Holochain just prior to the Indiegogo campaign and will be a Holohost. Have known Arthur and Mary from the DreamTeam days(Denver), and just think they are wonderfully brilliant and deep hearted. I feel privileged to be on this Holo journey with you all.
As a retired Boomer, I want to offer my support to any team or project that might want feedback/support from my demographic. You all are doing important work, and I’d love to help if I can. Virtual hugs to you all!
