Welcome to the inaugural episode of Seen in 3d. The folks at the DMZ have recognized that 3d is very important, and we need to have an entire show dedicated to it. So here is that show. AJ Peck and James Montemagno will be the co-hosts of this new endeavor and will try to bring some clarity to the world that is 3d. We’ll discuss the news and anything else that comes up.
