✨Sometimes the most futuristic thing you can do… is pause.⏱️
At @awe.xr - Augmented World Expo, we didn’t just walk—we reconnected. Holding the sign for @caitlinkrause_ck mindfulness walk was more than symbolic—it was a signal. That even in the rush toward innovation, there’s power in presence. 🌬️🌱
This wasn’t just a moment of wellness—it was a system reboot. A “phygital” reminder that imagination needs breath. That neurodivergence is a superpower. That joy, wonder, and balance belong in the mainstream.
We’re here for it. Let’s Do Cool Things the Right Way!®
Sometimes the most futuristic thing you can do is simply pause. At the recent Augmented World Expo (AWE) 2025 in Long Beach, Jonathan de Armas (JdA), from Island Pitch, did just that. Amidst the bustling expo floor, a moment of profound reconnection took place during a mindfulness walk led by Caitlin Krause.
For JdA, holding the sign for this mindfulness walk was more than just symbolic; it was a powerful signal. It underscored the idea that even in the relentless rush toward innovation, there's immense power in presence. This wasn't merely a moment of wellness; it was akin to a "system reboot". It served as a "phygital" reminder that imagination needs room to breathe, that neurodivergence is a superpower, and that joy, wonder, and balance deserve a prominent place in the mainstream.
This experience deeply resonates with Island Pitch's core values. We believe in fostering an inclusive, creative, and balanced work environment. Our commitment to diversity and inclusion, including hiring neurodiverse team members, is a fundamental principle. We're here for this balanced approach to technology and innovation.
At Island Pitch, we specialize in cutting-edge technologies like AR/VR and AI, always aiming to "Do Cool Things the Right Way!®". This means not only pushing the boundaries of what's possible with technology but also ensuring that our solutions are inclusive, ethical, and designed to empower everyone.
This mindfulness moment at AWE 2025 serves as a powerful reminder that while we continue to innovate and build the future, taking a moment to connect with ourselves and our community is just as vital. It's about ensuring that as we create new realities, we do so with intention, balance, and a deep understanding of the human experience.
