THE CONDITION OF VIRTUALITY


I actually thought this article was interesting and all. It was confusing in the beginning when it first starts as “Virtuality is the condition millions of people now inhabit” (Hayes 69). What is that actually suppose to mean, that everyone inhabits some traits.

When I think of virtuality I think of computer, videos games etc. There are a lot of virtual games in the world that are very addictive. I remember when I was a child, not being aware of games, just normal sports, but not necessary videos games. When I was about 14 or 15 years old, I started becoming a big fan of Nintendo. Now there are a lot of gaming consoles out there that are virtual games.

Another virtual technology is now being appealing to homebuyers. I remember my older sister buying a townhouse; the realtor actually gave her a site that showed the house virtually.

Overall, I liked the article and it made me wonder how the virtual world is expanding. Soon I think we will have virtual school.
