During last year’s XOXO, Will Smith announced he was leaving Tested, the enormously popular tech network he founded with Norm Chan and Mythbusters Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, to start something brand new — Foo VR and The Foo Show, an experimental virtual reality talk show. Will brings the first live Foo Show to XOXO, interviewing game designer Brendon Chung inside of his critically-acclaimed game, Quadrilateral Cowboy.
