Aristotle Beyond the Academy

Apple Vision Pro Aristotle

Encounter
Meet Talking Head Aristotle, now available from the team behind Beautiful Things. They design virtual and mixed reality apps for the Apple Vision Pro headset. Creator Matt Hoerl believes the ability to interact and debate with historical figures will transform education in the future:

"By making figures like Aristotle more interactive, we can demystify classical philosophy and make it accessible to broader audiences. This is one unique educational benefit we see in Talking Heads."

Alongside Aristotle, you can debate the ideas and ideologies of other intellectuals like Einstein, Thomas Edison, and, of course, the late great Steve Jobs! Aristotle is their first figure from the ancient world so we can't wait to see where they go next. Where Aristotle leads, others will follow.

We are delighted to be collaborating with Matt so please watch this space! Quite literally.
