The following is from a crumpled letter found in The Procrastinator mailbox. On the back was “pls send to the Procrastinator secretly thx :3”
Praxis 3X00/4XP3 is an overthinker’s worst nightmare. Did you know we are going to have to enroll in our own Praxis threads now? “What do I do?!” you may be asking yourself. As an upper year who has gone through every Thread 2 module, I believe it is my noble duty to inform the BHSc community about the best module of them all: VRooming through the Metaverse.
Like, oh my CARS.
With the module being all about technology and community, to test the limits, I began my experience by using my controller to virtually slap one of the other participants. It worked! It was just like my favorite show, Sword Art Online, except we were in the 16-bit Metaverse and you replaced the main character with Bike Wang. I have never felt so immersed in a community before.
My experience was so profound, I might even have personally discovered the 8th P of Inquiry™: Physical Symptoms. Nothing says “I’m alive and have a community-centric perspective!” like the constant looming threat of motion sickness. In fact, their dedicated (and devastatingly attractive) team will, upon request, pharmaceutically induce nausea in anyone who wants a full authentic experience of their respective VR community. I threw up twice! I have never seen this kind of commitment from Praxis before!
But to be honest, I still don’t know what this means for Thread 2 as a whole. Maybe the real community are the friends I made along the way? I’m so close to cracking the code, I know it…
I have to write my exciting reflections on this experience soon, so as the cool kids say in the program, Praxis you later 😉
