I think VR could definitely redefine our reality and may even change reality itself. The reason I think this is because humans are in general adaptive and have evolved both, scientifically and socially, to meet the needs of the future for better or worse. In this context, our needs do not change from what they have been forever, however, the means of accruing such resources, and the resources available for consumption and production change when reality changes, and VR just supplements that activity. What am I pointing at? This class has truly challenged how I think of everyday things such as the internet. In this weeks chapter reading, even, we discuss how integral the \’World Wide Web\” is in our daily lives. I am 25 so, more or less the same age as the internet but I remember when it was more of a tool for adults and a toy for kids, with adults using it for work and children circa 2000-2005 using it for entertainment purposes. Now, the internet is responsible for the creation of jobs, education, runs finances from individual to the stock exchange…nearly the entire world is on the internet or interacts with reality in a way that is affected by the internet. The internet is no longer a niche domain but a very public location in our realities that, if adequately equipped with a smartphone or laptop, is accessible, nearly anywhere, anytime, a truly consistent VR. Alternatives turn to primaries in the 21st century, perhaps because these alternatives are the best fit adaptation in the next step of evolution. The future is a fun place to experience.
