Up to now reality came in two forms.

OBJECTIVE REALITY & SUBJECTIVE REALITY.

But now we are seeing another Virtual Realty in the form of the metaverse.

A place where people can interact with each other and with digital objects in a way that simulates reality.

Within 3d immersive environments real takes a holiday, replaced by visual experiences that will eventually be accompanied by sensory experiences.

However inter subjective things exist in the exchange of information within this world.

The metaverse will eventually be able to remember one user from another.

Providing information to its platform to ensure consistency where physical human and digital reality’s will co exist.

Another words we will have two relationships with reality. A walled garden realm and a wild garden or a fusion of both.

This will be governed by the extent that the user can move around in the real world without using the metaverse which will be determined by the connectivity of the platform.

It might never be deemed safe to immerse oneself totally in the metaverse.

However one thing is clear the metaverse is here regardless of how it evolves it is going to change the way information is infused into reality.

Humans have an amazing ability to interpret everything from text to videos.

It’s time to get prepared as Ai in the form of algorithms will interpret information personalising it more and more, creating new entities and a entirely new level of reality,

If enough people agree that a particular state of reality exists then it does.

It then can do things that create inter subjective realities which are powerfully only within that state and not outside of it.

What I am trying to say is that a picture/video is worth a thousand words in deciphering information.

But the up and coming generation is however converting the messages of the metaverse gaming world into reality, without understanding the real underlying realities of the pictures being explained.

Violence, sexual abuse assaults, and other experiences are not comparable to reality in physical real life.

So where are we with the metaverse?

Its use in Education will be far reaching with virtually tours of almost anything or anywhere.

Its application in advertising, retail sales, housing, city development, infrastructure, all architectural projects, etc is in it’s infancy.

The global market for the metaverse is projected to reach 800 billions by the end of this decade.

App developers in medical industries will be using the metaverse to enhance their usage away beyond the hospital bed.

The film industry will be redefined through its creative abilities.

Facebook changing its name to Meta is a clear indication of where social media is going.

Only time will tell if the experiences of the metaverse will destroy whats left of reality.

All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
