| Summary: | Reality isn't what is used to be. As the world moves increasingly from the real to the virtual, the question emerges, who do we want to be as humans? The amount of time spent on devices is taking more of our time from the real world as we "fast forward" to the virtual future. As we transform our work, play, living, education and retail lifestyle, so too must architecture react and redefine the very nature of our public and private spaces. The challenge of our time is to learn to navigate In between these multiple realities on the spectrum between the real and the virtual world. As we progressively accept the technological advances in medicine that enhance our bodies, society will also begin to accept moving into the experiential, three-dimensional space of the virtual metaverse. This book presents a three-year exploration, research and case studies for expanding the tools of architecture for creating within this new reality for Living + Dying in between the Real and the Virtual World. |
