I’ve been an advisor to PulseJet for a while now and it’s been a blast. They have a clear vision for bringing music into #spatial/#vr/#immersive spaces and we’ve been working to get the word out (aka: #marketing). The first release is now up available on #oculus. We’re in early stages, but the marketing strategy is driven by the #Challenger mandates (thank you Julian Aldridge Aldridge for always pushing that idea into my brain). In particular, the concept of embracing your constraints. Each time I spoke with the three founders, I’d hear their frustration: they had no real way to *show* people the powerful, immersive experiences they were creating. We are going to do an in-person plan, but that’s hard to scale. That’s why we landed on a single-word strategic platform: #Indescribable. We simply can’t put the experience into words or images-on-a-screen. You can only experience it. The creative seed here is the beginning. We will focus ads not on the experience itself, but people’s *reaction* to it. Watch here and PulseJet for more. They are onto a good thing and VR is one of those huge bets the biggest names have made and content is the key to unlock growth.

Very simple and clever

Exciting weekend at the Ultra Music Festival ! While our video showcases the festival's vibrant atmosphere, it doesn't capture the two overdose incidents swiftly addressed and safely administered thanks to our distribution of Naloxone - NARCAN® Nasal Spray Canada. The quick actions of those involved ensured the safety of those affected. The return of friends to our booth the next day, sharing relief that their friends were okay and seeking more Naloxone, underscores the importance of our ongoing efforts in crisis intervention. Yet, behind the scenes lies four years of relentless dedication to becoming partners with Ultra Music Festival . Countless volunteers, myself included, worked to secure a presence at Ultra Music Festival and train staff at various music venues during music week. This initiative transcends Naloxone (NARCAN® Nasal Spray Canada) distribution; it embodies our unwavering resolve to save lives and empower our community. This is particularly vital as Miami-Dade County confronts a pressing #mentalhealth and #opioidcrisis. By supporting our cause,F Fentanyl Inc  (F-Fent.org/donate) you can help us continue our work. We are not just saving lives; we're fostering community healing. For businesses, it's also about financial prudence, sparing partners at the expense of absenteeism and tragic loss. Consider these compelling stats: - A recent Congressional Commission report revealed an annual cost to the US of $1 trillion; the biggest impact is lost productivity. (Source Congressional Commission Report ) - Substance use disorder is the #1 most expensive related health cost for business. (Source Milliman Cap Group) It's a win-win-win scenario for the #mentalhealth and #wellbeing of everyone in Miami-Dade County and our community partners. 💜💊🤑 Now, it's time for a well-deserved day of rest!

Leadership and investment is right! 👋

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐄 • Associate Professor John Fitzgerald—The Global Powerhouse University of Melbourne is facing a critical decision regarding an upcoming electronic dance music festival that has sold out and is expected to draw 12,000 attendees at Melbourne's Flemington racecourse. With a conservative estimate suggesting that approximately 30% of the festival-goers may opt to consume pills or powders of unknown composition, the university must determine the most effective approach for ensuring the safety and well-being of the attendees. Conducting testing before individuals use the substances presents several advantages. Pre-event testing allows for the identification of potentially harmful substances before they are ingested, enabling organizers to provide crucial information to attendees about the risks associated with the drugs in circulation. This proactive approach empowers individuals to make informed decisions regarding their substance use and may deter some from consuming hazardous substances altogether. Furthermore, pre-event testing can help identify trends in drug composition and circulation, informing future harm reduction strategies and enhancing overall safety at the festival. On the other hand, conducting testing after individuals have already used the substances poses significant challenges and limitations. Post-event testing may provide insights into the composition of drugs consumed at the festival, but it comes too late to prevent immediate harm or adverse reactions among attendees. Moreover, post-event testing may miss individuals who have experienced negative effects or medical emergencies due to substance use, limiting the effectiveness of intervention and harm reduction efforts. Drug testing is widely used across social gatherings, parties, events, and in private and public sectors globally to enhance safety, security, and accountability. It helps identify harmful substances, educate about drug risks, and prevent incidents. In employment screenings, drug testing is common to ensure workplace safety and support individuals with substance abuse challenges. In a similar vein, drug testing is vital in the public sector to uphold safety standards and comply with regulations in various fields like law enforcement, transportation, and government organizations. Overall, the widespread use of drug testing helps create safer environments, promote accountability, and mitigate risks associated with substance abuse globally. The Global Powerhouse University of Melbourne should conduct testing before the electronic dance music festival to proactively manage risks, empower attendees, and enhance overall safety. Drug testing at social gatherings transcends individual contexts, resonating globally in private and public sectors as a vital means to ensure safety, security, and accountability in society. #Australia #Drug #DrugTest #Party #Public #Private

[Accessibility should never be an after thought] The outrage that followed this music festivals attempt at providing an accessible viewing space puts a further spotlight on accessibility being a part of our planning not an afterthought. A lesson for all of us and one we should all be more mindful of. When it comes to the accessibility of your product or service, it’s never too late to make changes. Review what you have, and change how you deliver it in the future and that way it’s no longer an afterthought but simply what you do. #WorldMoreAccessible #WeAreBillionStrong https://bit.ly/450k6QS
