Containing the edited research papers resulting from an ambitious,
cross-disciplinary research project, this volume examines the
spatiality of virtual inhabited 3D worlds - virtual reality and
cyberspace. (Three other volumes look at Interaction, Staging and
Methodology.) It is about the communication spaces emerging at the
Internet and supported by special 3D interfaces. It is also about
the virtual spaces created by virtual reality hardware (CAVEs,
panoramic screens, head mounted display systems etc.) and software.
Virtual Space: Spatiality in Virtual Inhabited 3D Worlds is
interdisciplinary. It deals with philosophical, psychological,
communicational, technological and aesthetic aspects of space.
While philosophy raises the question concerning the ontology of
space - what is space - psychology deals with our perception of
space. Communication theory looks at the way in which space
supports communication (i.e. that space is a medium for
communication), and finally aesthetic analyses exemplify the use of
virtual space in virtual cities, in museums and in art.
