I just noticed that one of my talks on virtual value, the value we assign to things in #VR and other virtual contexts, is online. Since this version is meant to be accessible to a wider audience, I'll share it here. Please feel free to send any thoughts! youtu.be/MGAw3EwOecw?si…
I hope you'll consider this request from the community you helped build. In our often tragic world Dreams & @PlayStation offered a meaningful positive contribution by empowering everyone to create digital interactive art. It deserves to be on ps5, psvr2, & pc. @yosp @hermenhulst

“You take the blue pill- the story ends, you wake up in your bed & believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill- you stay in Wonderland & I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.” So says Morpheus. But what if the red & blue pills commit you to the same side? #VR

Happy to be sharing my most recent paper on value in the #virtual world. It’s my most comprehensive treatment of the subject so far: doi.org/10.1111/japp.1… . Blog post on it soon.
I'm happy to share Joséphine Robert's 'Is rape in the metaverse really rape?' interviewing me & Camille Martini on this difficult but increasingly pressing issue raised by the #metaverse & #VR technology. Thanks @philomag for helping publicize these issues!philomag.com/articles/un-vi…
Edmund Husserl and Gottlob Frege have coffee after lunch. #midjourney
Is any act permissible in a videogame? Many philosophers think not. But how many problems does the videogamer face when deciding what is permissible? In my new paper I argue that there at least three problems: link.springer.com/article/10.100… (without paywall: ramielali.com/wp-content/upl… )
Last week I had the pleasure of joining Alexis Papazoglou (@newsphilosophy) to discuss #Meta’s recent announcements, the #Metaverse, and virtual reality (#VR) technology on an episode of The Philosophy & The News. The episode is now out here newsphilosopher.buzzsprout.com
Next up, VR human! VR human aims to do everything a human can, & more. A modern Pinocchio, #MadeInDreams, & built in VR. It's an indefinitely long project, based on my ideas about immersion & virtual presence. ❤️to the many amazing Dreamers whose creations & tutorials helped.
Twitter won't let me upload the full video, so this is part 2/2, #MadeInDreams, in #VR, & loosely based on the #philosophy of #perception. Play an older version, with 10+ #illusions, in Dreams here: indreams.me/dream/mnHVkQjW…
Loved the new SEP entry on the problem of perception. A comprehensive overview of the ideas dominating the #philosophy of #perception these last 100 years or so. Also pleasantly surprised to see my response mentioned! Thanks for the great piece @timcrane102 & @craigafrench.

I made this series for my university about a year ago. It's for #educators interested in using #VirtualReality in classes. There's brief intros to #VR in #education, & overviews of apps for the #sciences, #humanities, #arts, & #SocialAwareness. Cheers! youtube.com/playlist?list=…
Time for some #VR posts. I wrote this piece on #ethics and virtual reality a few years ago lb.boell.org/en/2018/12/07/…. You can also find an Arabic translation here: lb.boell.org/ar/2019/02/08/…
Growing up in #Riyadh few things could have cheered me up like hearing about the Saudi Journal of Philosophical Studies from @ManaPlatform. But this week I also heard about reaching Mars’ orbit from @HopeMarsMission, too lucky! ألف مبروك & congratulations @uaegov @saudiarabia
I was recently replaying @pillowcastle's #Superliminal. Can't recommend it enough, especially if you're into visual perception. Don't think anything has been this good since @SonyJapanStudio's #Echochrome.
A talk I gave two years ago. Philosophy serves the future, and at this rate of change we need it more than ever today. youtu.be/nX1fZ2dSpMA #philosophy #TEDxLAU #TEDx
I gave a recent talk on the value of the virtual at @AlserkalAvenue's @PechaKucha event. I present an idea I'm developing for a new paper, arguing that the virtual has no uniform value in relation to the nonvirtual. You can see my part at around minute 16: youtu.be/qZC5MOaKQCo

KEEP PROTESTING KEEP BOYCOTTING KEEP TALKING ABOUT GAZA
Many months before Oct 7, Israelis shot 2 year old Palestinian Mohamad Tamimi in the head because he was related to activist Ahed Tamimi. Never forget who started this.
who gaf about the met gala these are the shoes of a palestinian toddler met gala models walk in clean heels while innocent children walk in bloodsoaked dirty sneakers
We are watching the worlds first genocide published in real time… We are witnessing the true meaning of Israel and Zionism…🇵🇸💔
A protest camp has started at Berlin’s Freie Universität
Today I saw a Palestinian man pick up pieces of flesh to put in a body bag, a child’s lifeless body pulled from the rubble, and a little girl being carried with a blood-soaked face, Then I saw American students get arrested by riot police with batons…for protesting this horror.
Update: No one in Gaza is allowed to travel + all aid has been stopped from entering Gaza.
A brutal arrest in Jerusalem tonight. Yiftah Dotan, was a former adviser to Labor legislator Naama Lazimi. She was calling for an immediate ceasefire. This is how they punished her. Absolutely horrific. Has Israel ever been a democracy?
The University of Amsterdam last night. This is unacceptable violence against our community of students and staff protesting their institution’s complicity in genocide. What happened to your concerns over safety on campus @UvA_Amsterdam?

Gaza’s only window to the world is being stormed & destroyed by Israeli tanks.
America’s “elite” party while not saying one word about Israel’s genocide: that’s because they care more about wealth and fame than maimed and dead children. #MetGala
Make those rich bastards uncomfortable
Free Palestine protest near the #MetGala 🇵🇸
Yom HaShoah, Holocaust remembrance Day, marks the Holocaust and honors the 17 million people murdered during Nazi Germany’s genocide, including 6 million Jews. We know our remembrance is hollow if we cannot apply the lessons of our past to the present day. 🧵
If a ceasefire is reached right now, the UN estimates that we would need a century to rebuild the Gaza Strip. A century to undo what Israel has done. 100 years. That’s 3 generations of Palestinians trapped in this genocide, even after reaching a ceasefire.
all eyes on rafah
BREAKING: Israel’s criminal invasion of Rafah, the last place of refuge for Palestinians in Gaza, has begun. 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah are now being attacked through air, land and sea, in the middle of the night.
