Pluck a headstone from Joseph Simpson\u2019s Project Graveyard and examine the text up close by stretching the object bigger.<\/p>\n
\u201cHopes and dreams have to go somewhere,\u201d Simpson\u2019s favorite tagline for the app explains.<\/p>\n
Project Graveyard is an app not worth selling, available only on an expensive headset not owned by many.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo sad\u201d it says on the first image on the Apple App Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n I have the graveyard next to me as I\u2019m writing this and I\u2019ve stuck in only two headstones so far. I put in placeholder dates at first because I couldn\u2019t remember the actual ones for Oculus Rooms and Facebook Spaces. Then, happy with the idea, I decided to look up the dates in another window and corrected them in the graveyard.<\/p>\n Perfect.<\/p>\n Now I have a graveyard I can build out over time of VR brands that died.<\/p>\n Project Graveyard is certainly a simple and silly idea, but its execution proves out basic concepts pointing to just how much space Apple made available to use in visionOS. Instead of a single Horizon World consuming a space, as is the case with Meta\u2019s platform, visionOS could deploy several of these dollhouse-scale volumes around me as I\u2019m writing.<\/p>\n I could pluck something small from any of them before releasing my pinch and letting it return to its place.<\/p>\n So if you release something for Horizon Worlds, and it fails, there\u2019s a chance someone might care to memorialize it in a spatial graveyard somewhere.<\/p>\n You can find more from Project Graveyard\u2019s creator on Bluesky<\/a> or his website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pluck a headstone from Joseph Simpson\u2019s Project Graveyard and examine the text up close by stretching the object…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":83981,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[49,48,61,260,261,262],"class_list":["post-83980","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-virtual-reality","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-technology","tag-virtual-reality","tag-virtualreality","tag-vr"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83980","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=83980"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83980\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=83980"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=83980"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=83980"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
