O knihe

This volume has a bold agenda, in which academics create immersive worlds where the avatar is
the center of the universe. As the virtual world grows, avatars move away from quasi-human
interactions within virtual domiciles, gardens, and businesses to being blood cells in the blood
stream, or to be firing neurons in the human brain, or creatures competing on the ocean floor or
the surface of Mars or just about anything that can be imagined using the magic of photographic
and artistic images, programming, narrative and avatars. What are the frameworks and strategies
for building these environments? What are the things the avatar adapts and learns from in its
environment? This book will examine such frameworks, strategies, examples and feedback systems
to explore what it takes to create a global education environment for learning.
This starts with engaging your avatar and is completed in a transformation in how you interact with the internet. Whether using the
visual internet to learn or to interact with a customer about a product or service, this immersive interface can be a world that knows you
and forms around your unique needs and interests.
