The Business Of Metaverse Architecture, Ft. Sunken Blimp

Metaverse architecture becomes more interesting when it moves beyond spectacle and starts to answer a commercial question: who pays, what is built and what value does the space create?
Stephen Drew speaks with Matheus Stancati of Sunken Blimp about metaverse architecture as a business, including virtual showrooms, events, client work, behaviour data, community, design affordance and the bridge between physical and virtual space.
The conversation covers:
How metaverse architecture can move from passion project to paid work
Why virtual showrooms and events create commercial use cases
How behaviour data can inform virtual environment design

Back. Is it web 2. 0? Web 3. 0? Well, it's interview 2. 0. We are going deep, flying deep in the Metaverse. Continued conversation. All right. All right. Here we go. All right. I'm getting ready. Get your pens and paper. Get your beers if you're in the UK. If you're in the US, you should still be working. Oh, I let you off.
I'm not going to tell your boss. All right. 15 seconds. All will be revealed. Woo.
