Virtual Reality: The Future Is Coming | John Vechey | TEDxOrcasIsland
Virtual Reality is the next step in the technological revolution. The ability to detach our presence from our physical bodies will enhance our ability to come together in community.
John grew up in Wisconsin under supervision of hippie parents and eventually found his way to Purdue University. In college he met his soon to be business partner in computer programming class. Following his passion he dropped out of school to program games, and that passion eventually lead to authoring one of the most popular mobile games of all time, Bejeweled. For the next 15 years he headed PopCap games until selling to Electronic Arts in 2013. His next venture is a Virtual Reality startup called Pluto VR.
