Others have drawn the same connection to Dynamicland, but the article briefly mentions "Dynamicland, a project to which Folk owes much of its design and philosophy" and lists Omar Rizwan as one of the Folk Computer founders. Omar was on the Dynamicland staff ~2018-2020, see https://dynamicland.org/2023/People/ https://dynamicland.org/2023/People/
(Edit, it also looks like they have some presentations on YouTube:

- adolph 10mo agoI'm watching the second video right now. Really interesting thing of comparing that Oculous and Apple Vision are doing vs what folk computer is doing to put the physical world first. A weakness I see is the frequent printing and communication using glyphs similar to April tags. The origami buttons are clever tho.
