your transistor radio could pick it up and just crazy things like that. If you sent the right kinds of loops to your computer, you could make noises coming out of. I mean, it was nothing.īut nonetheless you could do kind of cool stuff. You had a little teletype for your output. Had blinking lights, you had all 4K memory. oh, okay, now bad things are happening on my screen. You could toggle in your instructions that way. It had little blinking lights on the front. There was a PDP 11 computer with all of 4K. And yeah, so I started out in high school in 1974 or something. It's funny because in preparation for this podcast, I had been sort of thinking about what my history as it were. I could go on and on, but we'd love to hear your journey to the metaverse from your perspective. And then your work now at NVIDIA with Omniverse.
And then thinking of the metaverse with Minecraft, what you did with Mineways for 3D export to do 3D printing or to publish out to Sketchfab. And more recently, Ray Tracing Gems, everything you've done for the I3D conference. I remember reading many of those articles and implementing a few of them as well. You've done so much else to support the community, your Udacity course for interactive 3D graphics- I think it reached so many folks, Ray Tracing News. And I learned a lot in grad school about computer graphics.
I think I learned as much from your books than I did in grad school. A few that I really appreciate, the four additions of the real-time rendering book as co-author. So Eric, you've done many things in the computer graphics community over your career thus far. With us today is Eric Haines, distinguished engineer at NVIDIA. Today we have a very special guest that's going to be a real treat. He is out this week, but he's with us in spirit. Our co-host is Mark Petit from Epic Games. Hello everyone and welcome to our show, Building The Open Metaverse, the podcast where technologists share their insights on how their community is building the metaverse together. Hosted by Patrick Cozzi from Cesium and Marc Petit from Epic Games. Welcome to Building The Open Metaverse, where technology experts discuss how the community is building the open metaverse together. But I think that virtual thing where you're actually building something and that it has some kind of permanence in a sense, there's really something strong about that, there's something really compelling about that. It's nice to have the, "Well, we went to the cool music event or whatever, or the party and we met up." And that's fine to have a social space and so on. We all know the best way to spread holiday cheer is singing loud for all to hear.So I think that changing things in the virtual world thing is significant. I say the world could use a lot more people interested in brightening other’s days. What a great story for this time of year when often times we can get lost in the hustle and bustle of the to do lists of the holidays. He seems like he has an act fit for some of the new talent reality shows. He went on further to say, “He brightened our day!” This guy really has amazing talent and his musical timing is not bad. “We saw this guy while we were waiting for our flight,” wrote Matthew Morris the man responsible for capturing the footage. Well kudos to this man named Eric Haines who decided to take his gig to the airport and spread some holiday cheer with his dazzling rendition of Jingle Bell Rock. If you have ever been stuck in an airport you know just how depressing it can be while you wait through long lines and the frustration of not knowing if you will ever reach your destination. Thankfully there are good people in this world left to spread some holiday cheer. Travelling through the holidays can be a bit of a downer for people.
