The Self Blends: In this video, I am debating with the famous philosopher of mind, Daniel Dennett, about the existence of God. But...I'm actually debating w *myself* through Dennett's virtual avatar in a twisted-up, ego-dissolving #VR exchange. It's me v me. (vid from @melslater)

Five years ago today we put Seeing I on Kickstarter!

The Kickstarter was unsuccessful, but Seeing I now looks set to take place in 2020 - I'll wear a VR headset for 24h / 14 days only seeing & hearing one persons life!

Quite a relaxing day today for Mark, who is currently following a farmer around, soon to be picking berries and cleaning eggs. He just ate a breakfast of eggs and tomatoes.

exercising is key to keep Mark entertained and moving - his vitals are constantly being monitored

[Seeing I @seeing_i_]

the act of observing the observer changes the information - but who's information? The watcher or the one being watched? - Stefan, subject number 6 of 7, asking Mark rhetorical questions throughout the day

It's vitally important to take care of the self that does allow us to life wisely in this 3D world - even if much of scientific and contemplative enquiry indicates that the sense of self is an illusion - Tamara Russel, Seeing I's clinical psychologist
