„Even if an experience has been created artificially, the memory of it all will appear genuine to us. Discussing the visual fidelity of a simulation is thus meaningless as our brains will fill in the gaps while re-interpreting context and causality. Eventually it’s all consolidated into a human-machine induced parallel reality in which our brains will not differentiate anymore between what had been experienced in the real world as compared to a virtual one.“
Jonathan Marker in „Diaries yet to be written“
The above quote beautifully describes the essence of what I took with me after a full day listening to inspiring talks about the #Metaverse and #Web3 during today’s Art Directors Club (ADC) event „Metaverse – Heaven or Hell?“. Thank you all for organizing and participating at such an amazing, high-caliber event!
