A quick survey of trends and what's happening around the world:
A few guiding ideas:
-Virtual Worlds: A tool or a world
- Closed Virtual Worlds versus the Immersive Web
-People will share experiences for others to re-live instead of just telling or showing them in the future.
- Its happening in China, Singapore, Korea (not really...), Australia, Germany... and the list goes on...
OTHER THOUGHTS:
I'm still trying to figure out what is the REAL application of virtual worlds:
- The influence of games on the visuals and the uses of VWs
- The relationships between virtual reality and virtual worlds. ("Mathematical Wonderland" through the screen. hence the name of this blog)
- The original meanings of virtual reality and what was intended or dreamed: Some of this will come to pass, others will not, and the real thing probably hasn't been thought of yet.
- The other associated technologies required to be converged for all this to happen easily.
