CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM

RE: Real Virtuality Helmet

Gentlemen, as you know, we’ve been collaborating with York and Warwick universities on a new, fully immersive personal entertainment device, tentatively called the “Real Virtuality Helmet.” I’ve attached an explanatory diagram which should help illustrate its manifold functionalities — I’m sure you’ll immediately see, as we did in the Lab, how groundbreaking this technology is, and how it might be specifically put to use in the world of popular music entertainment.

We’ve reached a point in the unit’s development were the headset has come out of the lab and is being “designed to market.” At this point, per our previous memorandum of understanding, I’m handing the project back to you for the appropriate market research, to determine how the typical Townsman or Townswoman might be most likely to put this device to use.

For more detailed information on this device, please visit: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1159206/The-headset-mimic-senses-make-virtual-world-convincing-real-life.html .

Please ask your readers to pay close attention to the fact that the device immerses users in a virtual environment that replicates sound, vision, smell and taste — so, presumably, the rock and roll-related environments it simulates should feature elements that stimulate not just the eye and ear, but the nose and tongue as well.

In any case, please keep me posted on responses to your membership inquiries. Once we’ve received sufficient actionable input from RTH membership, we can finalize design.

Thanking you in advance,

Milo
