The document is a presentation by @thatpatrickguy about engaging with and helping shape the future of virtual reality (VR). It provides a 4 step plan: 1) Get VR equipment and show it to others, 2) Make your own VR projects, 3) Connect with the VR community for help and collaboration, 4) Share your VR experiences, findings, and creations through blogging, public speaking, or other means. The presentation emphasizes that VR is still in early stages and can benefit from contributions from a diverse community of creators and early adopters.
