XLIVExLDI will present two days of innovative explorations from the metaverse to fan experiences at LDI, November 17 & 18, 2022 in Las Vegas.
The metaverse sessions will build on the experiences of XLIVE’S online META•MERSIVE webcasts, so if you enjoyed those, be sure to join us in person next month!
Bob Bonniol, the chief creative officer of MODE Studios and MetaMODE, and a member of the Rolling Stone Culture Council, will be leading the sessions and will kick off the first day with his keynote, Brave New Worlds, Where Are We Heading? He will take us through the future of the entertainment industry as it morphs into new paradigms where 2D and 3D blend, reality slips into AI, AR, VR, and xR… and virtual worlds beckon us to enter.
Other metaverse and Web3 focused sessions will include:
Ian Grieve Enters The Metaverse
Fan events and experiences of all kinds are moving to the metaverse to take advantage of everything that virtual environments and web3 technology have to offer, and esports is no different. Hear from Ian Grieve, former director of Sony PlayStation, is at the forefront of this transition as the current director of interactive for ESTN, the largest metaverse esports platform.
How NFTs Will Transform Event Ticketing & Fan Experiences
Event ticketing has been broken for a long time, with fans having to face high processing fees on ticketing platforms, insane price gouging on secondary markets, and sometimes ticket fraud. Thanks to blockchain technology and NFTs, new platforms are being developed to help solve these problems and revolutionize the ticketing space for both fans and organizers.
Fast forward to the day when every artist, major brand, and entertainment IP is going to be creating experiences in the metaverse that mirror, amplify and augment what they are doing in the physical world. Every store, concert, and conference will be matched and extended by buildouts of immersive experiences online, as well as deploying NFTs, blockchain, and game engines to gather audiences, connect, engage, and sell.
