The Typology of Virtual Reality: The Internet and Culture

Abstract

No other advancement has affected culture, vernacular, and life greater than the internet. It has redefined the very fabric of our society. Memes have become a new coded language, and a conversation constructed to covertly analyze, comment on, satirize, reveal, speak truth to power, and at best describe the way the internet is powerfully mediated. These issues and the ways we discuss them are exceedingly important and they need our attention in order to make any progress on them.
