I'm looking for a cofounder

This special someone (or someones) will run Wist with me and specialize on the technical side.

Wist lets you capture and then step inside your memories.

Users take a video. Wist makes it 3D. Then, the user can walk back inside that moment – on mobile, mobile AR, and VR.
