Here’s a little bit o’ video about trying out Virtual Reality (VR) for the first time at SXSW. It was all over the conference this year – the topic of panels, the highlight of the trade show, and new gear announced to film it and support it. VR is here, and it’s going to start changing our media experience on a consumer level soon.

You can do this with a smart phone and a cardboard headset (or a more advanced one). Google Cardboard is cheap and simple to use. Check it out here. Samsung has a VR headset that does amazing things for $100. Stick your phone in. Enjoy a new form of media/entertainment/education/who knows what.
