Specificatii
A Wired senior editor and virtual reality expert presents a
captivating, candid glimpse into the future realities of this
emerging technology: how we will use it to form previously
impossible relationships, explore new frontiers of intimacy, and
how it will forever change human connection.Heralded as the most
significant technological innovation since the smartphone, virtual
reality is poised to transform our very notions of life and
humanity. Though this tech is still in its infancy, to those on the
inside, it is the future. VR will change how we work, how we
experience entertainment, how we feel pleasure and other emotions,
how we see ourselves, and most importantly, how we relate to each
other in the real world. And we will never be the same.Peter Rubin,
senior culture editor for Wired and the industry's go-to authority
on the subject, calls it an intimacy engine. While once we needed
another person to feel the sensations of closeness, trust,
vulnerability, confidence, and titillation, VR will give us the
ability to induce these sensations by ourselves for the first time
in human history. This metamorphosis, Rubin argues, is going to
have a powerful impact on relationships that will ripple throughout
our society and our individual lives.A journey into this uncertain
future and a glimpse at the cultural implications and promises of a
new reality, Future Presence explores a host of complex questions
about what makes us human, what connects us, and what is real.
Offering a glimpse into the mind-blowing things happening in
universities, labs, and tech companies around the world, Rubin
leads readers on an entertaining tour of the weirdest, wildest
corners of this fascinating new universe. Describing this book as
half travelogue and half crystal ball, Rubin will: Introduce
readers to the creators and consumers of VR technologyShow readers
what an experience is like inside the current VR devicesExplain how
this technology will upend everything we know about human
connection in the futureAt once the incredible, inevitable story of
virtual reality's rise and a look towards the future of our
fantasies, Future Presence is a deeply personal examination of what
connects us, and an analysis of what relationships, empathy, and
sex could look like--sooner than we think.
