10 levels of sleight of hand magic
In this video, expert magician Daniel Roy walks us through a series of progressively more impressive card control examples. Gives you an idea of how deep the rabbit hole goes.

OtherWorld London
OtherWorld is a London VR attraction. Unlike many other VR experiences that just use off-the-shelf games you can buy at home, they have their own free-roam VR island with in-game portals to sixteen unique virtual reality experiences.
You also get your own immersion pod – a enclosed room which has dynamic heat lamps, fans, and rumble effects. While you walk around in the VR island, you actually feel the heat on your head from the direction of the in-game sun via the real-world based heat lights that surround you. Fans create island breezes, rumble surfaces create unstable ground, and other effects. Hopefully it survives covid as they opened right before the lockdown.

When I was a kid, I remember SquareOne TV very fondly. I even got the weekly activity books (which nobody seems to remember or mention besides myself) and remember being so excited when they came. It really turned me on to math and eventually computers.
Here’s one of the better resource collections for SquareOne. But if you want to check out some episodes, you can see some of them on YouTube:

Peanuts Roundabout
Garren Lazar’s latest edit has the gang tackling the 1971 Yes track Roundabout, and it’s quite perfectly synced up with the prog-rock masterpiece.
