Journal #8
I read the reading, "ART VIEW; Virtual Reality: Is It Art Yet?"
Basically the whole thing was about Virtual Reality and different peoples view on it. Even though we all know its the latest and greatest computer technology, some people think theres more to it. Mr. Mulligan made a virtual reality of illusionary space, referred to like a Star Trek. If you want to make a full on three-dimensional illusion of virtual reality, its very expensive. I don't think I would pay the money for it, but a lot of artists do. Although, the reason a lot of artists don't is because of the price also. Something I do like about virtual reality is that it has links to earlier art- some with paintings and also with technology. Virtual reality is thought to be the "perfect medium" for the future generation of illusionistic video games. There are so many games of virtual reality they pop up everywhere now- whether in a bar to eventually rides at amusement parks.
