Blue Metaverse Initiative

Blue Metaverse invites you to participate a series of virtual events as avatars in multiple 3D worlds using the web browser on your computer or VR headset. You will join a battle in a desert as Blue Apes to find treasures. You will find yourself in an Alice in Wonderland garden to solve puzzles. You will join others to be guided for meditation and poetry reading in the Moon Garden. You will be transported into a haunted gothic mansion to explore the story of Frankenstein. You and your friends are on a spaceship for solving mysteries in an immersive theater with live actors. You will enter other creators’ 3D spaces to experience their stories (e.g., Blue to Fly video). You will be in a plaza where you check out a variety of DAOs to participate. You can hop into office hours of DAOs to interact with peers. You can visit a virtual co-working space to chat with other Harmony members. You will be shaping your digital lifestyle in the Blue Metaverse.

Blue Metaverse is a curation. Blue Metaverse is evolving. Blue Metaverse is diverse. You will define what Blue Metaverse is with your digital journey.
