Blake J. Harris, the author of the Geekscape favorite narrative non-fiction book 'Console Wars', returns to the podcast to talk about his new book 'The History of the Future'! Blake has spent the last 4 years heavily researching the story Oculus founder Palmer Luckey's rise through the tech ranks from creating his own virtual reality rigs in a mobile home in Long Beach to selling Oculus to Facebook for billions of dollars only a few years later. In his new book, Blake strings together a narrative through first hand interviews and extensive research to bring you a story that is still happening in real time! We talk about the elements that led to the resurgence of VR, what the technology could really mean to Geekscapists and the world and how selling your company for billions of dollars might not be a dream come true! This is a fantastic episode so please support Blake by ordering a copy of his book (if you read 'Console Wars' you don't need much convincing) and enjoy the episode!
