The last part of that was intended as humor, but there is something you should know: On my recent PhD program, I carried an exhaustive litetature search, to establish the state of the art in 3D VR technology. From that, I could see a certain gap between what existed, and what my product needed.

I constructed the PhD program to obtain firstly a pipeline which would enable realtime scanning of 3D static scene data, and secondly a motion capture schema for the capture of human body movements from a specially equipped mobile camera.

I expected around three years development time for each of those phases, as I could only work part time around contracting, to fund the work.

I was beaten to the post by another company on the first phase, which wasn’t really a surprise, as I had pretty good visibility of who was doing what in that area.

But a much bigger surprise was to hear that Huawei had already marketed a phone with the motion capture capability.

We had absolutely no papers at all in the West on that subject. To me, it looked like virgin territory.

And there was Huawei with it, literally singing and dancing in a phone.

Like the one I have in my hand right now as I write this.

So, December last year I thought OK, at least Huawei don’t seem to realise the potential power they have right here. I immediately bought two of these phones and set off for Cuba with one, and my Daughter staying in UK with the other.

My plan was to provide the motion capture technology to a dance company there, show them how to use it, then provide a market for the animations of their unique rhumba dances, which I knew would be valuable, my share of the revenue then funding the last bit of research needed to put the tech into my originally intended UAV product.

To do that, I had to modify the Huawei app in cuba, to capture the data in the correct format needed for the virtual market I had in mind.

Then, the bank froze my account in cuba, the phone went missing due to me being somewhere silly due to lack of cash, I got back to see the covid crisis kicking in, tried developing the app again using the phone I left here with my daughter, and couldn’t because google decided they were no longer working with Huawei, and many apps including mine stopped working. I havent been able to get the mocap capability working again since.

Now you might think it would be easy to find a google eqivalent of that capability, but I know we can’t, unless it has been stolen from Huawei, because firstly we have not done the research, and secondly it is specific to the huawei phone architecture.

The same capability is that which can replicate live humans in real time in a virtual eqivalent of the real world, it has truly mind blowing potential for humanity, and we’ve lost it.

Because of the stupid colonial mentality of the West, we are literally going backwards.

So now, when we see that the money of the West is starting to slide downwards exponentially, relative to assets, all currencies together, essentially breaking free from assets, going into freefall together, whilst the market values of those currencies together remain comparable relative to one another we should realise we are seeing a new phenomenon, money that only has value when it is given away, like electrical current, we can analyse it using the same concepts as electrical circuit theory, and we learn from that that the future of assets is to become valueless relative to the movements of this new free money, which can be distributed to all people for free, we see a whole new non profit world emerging that ironically, China cannot compete with, but which will absolutely turn the Western system upside down, and there is nothing that can stop it, we pause, smile, and wave.

Things are changing, for the better, one way or another, unless some idiot starts a war.
