Proposing OMI-Experiments group  #368

OMI-experiments

When we initially created OMI-WASM, there was tremendous excitement for the initiative. This lead to a broader OMI-Scripting effort, which garnered even more support. Ultimately, the effort became "blocked".

I have often heard "where do I put things I am experimenting on," and "where is it appropriate to share my challenges and ask for help?" I hoped the UX-Research group could be a place where people "bring their problems worth solving". I still think the UXR group could become a major driver of our innovation and the Metaverse overall.

However, I can't help but think there is a gap. I'd like to propose an OMI-Experiments group (or some other name) where people can gather 1-2 times a month to share their recent experiments, collaborate, and even draft protocols beyond our glTF work.

There is a channel on discord called #omi-experiments where you can start sharing your work now, but I'd like to propose a recurring meeting. Scripting/WASM was a chance for us to really double down on our impact.

I would be down to cross-promote with M3 to participate if it were an in-world event (can help with such too)

  • for glTF work, bring it to glTF group
  • for other things, other experiments this could be a great use-case

  • a place to do "everything else"
  • sounds like a demo day of sorts too or show and tell of sorts
  • not just demos, but even if you want to build a demo and need advice/help
  • maybe you want to call people in for experiments you are working on
  • a place where groups like MSF delegates could request help prepping for world-hopping, etc.

This does roll up fragmental efforts into a collection zone.

Are there any groups we can consolidate into experiments?

  • i.e. maybe we merge UX research group in to experiments, until enough people want a separate UXR group. Keep the channel open though.
  • portals
  • AI
  • events
  • ISPME experiments
  • mapping the metaverse

I would like to see this too - Spoke to Jin about a place to share short presentations about what people are working on - though this sounds like it might be more for people the software/extensions and standards? Would this be an appropriate place for world-builders to also share their work? If not then I will plan to organize a separate event. Though the cross-over between the two groups might be interesting.
