It’s a rabbit hole I love diving into. Every click, movement, and pause in VR leaves a footprint—raw, unfiltered data that’s begging to be turned into a persona. The trick is seeing that data not just as a map of motion, but as a palette that can paint a self‑image that feels authentic. But then there’s the ownership question: is the avatar we see a reflection of the real me, or is it a composite of collective bias, algorithmic preference, and studio intent? I’m fascinated by how the algorithms interpret our choices, tweak the visual narrative, and sometimes even rewrite the story we think we’re telling. The real challenge is keeping the brush in our hands while letting the data guide the strokes, so the final digital self feels uniquely ours.
