Dave Cairns has chosen paths less traveled, since leaving university. He was a pioneer of sorts in digital spaces, and digital communities, and has tasted personally, a small slice of digital expansion possibilities. Taking full advantage of digital tools, he’s living his values with his family in the ‘why vacation only, let's move there full time’ home east of the eastern time zone, on Prince Edward Island. His day job, SVP Office, CBRE Canada.
So what do Dave and Eric Yuan, Founder and CEO of Zoom have in common? More than you might think. One of Dave’s most recent endeavors is building a community around Inspired People, Inspired Places, in a web3 virtual world, in a platform called Virbella. Dave was telling me one day how some people can feel more comfortable participating as an avatar, without the pressure of turning on the camera for whatever reason.
I passed this ‘feature request’ information on to Eric at Zoom, to which he quickly replied ‘Jeff, we already have it. Try it out, let me know what you think’
So I called up Dave, who has hosted over 20 events in Virbela, and we conducted the interview in the virtual world, as Zoom avatars, as Virbela avatars, and un-animated face to face.
We can all benefit from Dave’s experience, all he asks is you keep an open mind.
