Six Thought Leaders Across Arts, Technology, Academic and Industry Sectors to Advise on the Krysalistm Pod Immersive Treatment Experience

 

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 6, 2021) – Lobe Sciences Ltd. (CSE: LOBE) (OTC Pink: GTSIF) (“Lobe” or the “Company“) today announced that Krysalis VX Innovations Inc. (“Krysalis”), the Virtual experience (“VX”)-focused company designing the delivery of immersive, headset-free experiences through the KrysalisTM Pod system that will offer treatment options for cognitive, psychological, motor and functional impairments across various clinical health conditions, has appointed a distinguished and future-facing advisory team composed of Alex McDowell, Jon 9, Austin Blaisdell, and the three minds behind sonic engineering company, Resonant Devices, Kent Noonan, Erik Larson and Casey Atteberry.

 

Krysalis was formed pursuant to a joint venture agreement between Lobe and Virtual Psychedelics Incorporated (“VPI”) announced on April 27, 2021, where Krysalis is owned 50% by Lobe and 50% by VPI.

This advisory group will assist Krysalis through its first iteration of the KrysalisTM Pod. The current leadership team of Krysalis, CEO and social network-transmedia pioneer, Josh Shore; Hollywood director, futurist, and KrysalisTM Pod project lead, Brett Leonard; Professor and Director of Medical Virtual Reality at USC’s Institute for Creative Technologies, Dr. Albert (Skip) Rizzo; and VIP Event Producer, William (Billy) Alfonso (Formula-1, Cirque du Soleil) – are thrilled that the KrysalisTM Pod development will now benefit from representation and expertise of the advisory team that spans across arts, technology, design, academic and industry sectors.

 

“As a cinematic storyteller, having told cautionary tales of the transformative power of Virtual Reality in my movies, to now be involved in the actual reality of using this technology thanks to our groundbreaking partnership with Lobe Sciences and the incredible advisory group being announced here, is the realization of my greatest hopes for Virtual eXperience (VX) to be a positive force for healing the human spirit,” said Brett Leonard. “The best part is, with the development of the KrysalisTM Pod, no one in these therapeutic environments will have to strap an uncomfortable device on their head.”

 

Krysalis is committed to further developing systems that deliver virtual experience in tandem with psychedelics for research and clinical therapy, developing VR systems without psychedelics for recreational purposes such as gaming, and is focused on the development of the KrysalisTM Pod. The KrysalisTM Pod is new technology that will harness biometric feedback to make visible the tangible combined effects of virtual reality (“VR”) and psychedelics on biometric activity in real time. With this ability, the implementer (researcher or clinician) will be able to monitor both the psychedelic and the immersive experience such that it will be uniquely tailored to individual responses, and thus moderated to maximize the desired effect and therapeutic outcomes.

 

“I am impressed with the depth and capabilities of the Advisory team assembled by Krysalis management,” said Philip Young, CEO Lobe Sciences Ltd. “We have confidence that working together they will be able to create an industry leading VX experience that may aid those suffering from depression, PTSD and other mental health issues.”

 

This advisory team will be pivotal in defining aesthetic and pragmatic attributes of Krysalis VX’s treatment-oriented technology. The advisory team consists of:

Alex McDowell Award-winning designer, storyteller, and founder and creative director of Experimental Design where McDowell and his team design immersive story worlds for industries and institutions. He is simultaneously a professor of practice at USC School of Cinema, where he directs the World Building Media Lab and World Building Institute and teaches world building as a media and platform-agnostic narrative design practice. Alex is also known as one of the top Hollywood production designers, having worked on some of the biggest visionary Hollywood blockbusters such as Steven Spielberg’s “Minority Report”.

 

Jon 9 is a Creative Technologist who handles large-scale digital display projects, streaming immersive spaces, content creation and post-production management for complex systems.

His expertise is rooted in developing experiential media spaces that require new techniques and technologies.

 

Austin Blaisdell is a design strategist and art director who uses 3D printing, Virtual Reality, and the entire digital universe to project visions spanning all arts-related genres. His spatial design, visual direction, and design solutions may be experienced internationally, at exhibitions from Los Angeles to New York to Paris.

 

Kent Noonan is an Electronic Engineer whose expertise spans all areas of design and manufacturing, lasers and optics, high performance electronics and tough industrial devices, alternative healing with light and electromagnetic frequencies, free energy devices and alternate fuels, plasma, cymatics, and structured water research.
