Minnov8 Gang 392 – I Stand With Rosa

We discuss the top Minnesota and other tech stories, but our guest this week is none other than Chuck Olsen, a new media entrepreneur who continues to be involved with cutting edge tech.

This time Chuck’s virtual reality firm, Visual VR, Inc., created an augmented reality character named Rosa, the world’s first virtual activist. She’s a 50ft tall woman “standing up for women everywhere“, and was first delivered publicly so as to “embody every woman who could not participate” and display their messages on Rosa’s sign during the Women’s March in Washington D.C. on January 21st, 2017 (see photos below).
