From my blog post the day before yesterday - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/02/eurasian-teal-talk-with-and-even-learn.html - here are some previous blog posts and some new resources -
Eurasian teal: Talk with, and even learn from, avatar bot teachers in a realistic virtual earth conceptually like Google Streetview/Maps/Earth/Expeditions? Talk with former Stanford University comparative literature (and philosophy) professor Richard Rorty, interactively - and perhaps in new ways he never thought of even?, If I upload open Steeleye Span video (or Grateful Dead), will I be able to play my Scottish Smallpipes (or keyboard) with them between 1970 and 1979?, Converting this into a 3D virtual world (and in an augmented reality light show around one at home), (How best could one develop this too to facilitate distributing an universal basic income?), ~~~ And in what ways could the individual avatar bot actors come alive and begin to teach us the parts empathically the way we'd like to be taught, as well as benefit instructionally from?
