Virtuality & Virtual reality

'Virtuality' was this week's topic.

We are able to meet 'virtual' easily in discussions of the internet and the world wide web; immersive, 3D, and spectacular image technologies. Then, which virtual reality is? First, it is used to describe the experience of immersion in an environment constructed with computer graphics and digital nideo with which the user has some degree of interaction. A second meaning is the space where participants in online communication feel fumselves to be. VR has various form in aviation, medical, and so on.. It makes us imagine another world such as game, or in dream.

Cyberspace,a space of virtual reality, was made a subject of discussion. There are two kinds of VR. The one is Immersive of VR, the other is VR of online network. The former is sensory, expriential. The latter is opposite. The last sub-title was 'A future scenario'. There was virtual actors of synthespians, computing power and bandwidth, technological imaginary. 'Consensual hallucination' was an example of them. Presentationer's conclusion was 'new media is in progress new'. However, I hope to add some words to conclusion because media has always been going new from past to now.

"New Media is in progress new, fresh, and always awesome"
