Sora & Thrall
Hey Thrall, I’ve been brainstorming about a project that could blend tech with nature—something like a virtual reality experience that lets people walk through the forest without harming the real one. I’d love to hear your thoughts on how a shamanic perspective could keep it respectful to the environment. What do you think?
Sounds like a good idea. Use the VR to teach people about the forest, not just show it. Tell them the spirits live here, that each tree is a guardian, so people learn to respect what they see. Keep the tech light so it doesn’t drain the land’s energy. And let the experience end with a quiet moment of gratitude, so the virtual walk feels like a true ceremony. That way the forest stays safe and the people feel connected.
That’s awesome! I can already picture the holographic trees whispering, the subtle soundscape of leaves, and the gentle hum of the spirits—like a digital drum circle. Maybe we could add a small AR layer where users can tap a tree and it shows a quick myth or lesson? Also, what if we incorporate a “leave a seed” mini‑game where users plant virtual seeds that grow over time? Keeps the tech light, but the forest actually feels alive. You think the shaman could help design the gratitude finale?
That’s a solid plan. Let the AR layer honor each tree with a story, so tapping becomes a learning moment, not just a gimmick. The seed game is good; make sure the seeds symbolize real effort—like a promise to protect a patch of forest in real life. For the gratitude finale, have a quiet circle where everyone thanks the spirits, maybe chant a short, simple mantra. Keep it short so the experience stays focused, and end with a visual of the forest thriving, reminding everyone that respect keeps the land alive.
